When we rebooted our homeschool in the fall of 2011 we were in for a big surprise. After taking the summer off Darrell had forgotten everything. EVERYTHING! He didn’t remember the sound of the letters. He had forgotten addition although in the spring we had been doing multiplication. I was convinced he was just trying [...]

Aspartame in Milk?
March 4, 2013 By 2 Comments
Aspartame in milk? Not here yet but it may not be long. As milk sales have declined in recent years the milk industry has sought ways to push up sales. Now they have an idea… ASPARTAME! The idea is ludicrous and hard to even believe. The concept is driven by the schools not getting as [...]

It looks like it will provide many resources and answer questions. With my sons narrow palate, class three malocclusion, short frenulum and more we are always wanting to learn more [...]

Vintage Soda Ad Markets Babies
October 26, 2012 By Leave a Comment
I found this vintage 7-Up ad that encourages giving babies soda here. Very sad; yet you still see it today. How can our children be healthy when we (as parents) make such poor choices? We need to make each bite count — packed with vitamins and nutrients to help grow bodies, fight off infection, develop [...]
Don’t be a SAD Consumer
October 26, 2012 By Leave a Comment
Dr. Weston A. Price is important for his research/documentation of diet and physical implications. His philosophy that processing and preserving foods damaged their nutritional value is a message worth heeding today. Let’s start with SAD – “Standard American Diet”. The acronym is appropriate in my humble opinion because the standard diet I see people eating [...]
Super Healthy Milk
September 7, 2012 By Leave a Comment
by Jo Robinson Most cartons of milk in the supermarket show a picture of cows contentedly grazing on grass. Unfortunately, 85 to 95 percent of the cows in the United States are now being raised in confinement, not on pasture. The only grass they eat comes in the form of hay, and the ground that [...]

Jeri is the one who first introduced Dr. Price to me. She was the one who told me about the relationship with nutrient dense foods and health. She changed my life forever; I am glad she is willing to share some of what she has learned with all of us. Enjoy!

Preemie on Homemade Formula
July 27, 2012 By Leave a Comment
The person who first introduced me to homemade baby formula was our customer, Fleeta Gregory. Her and her husband, Michael were some of our early supporters. At that time they were foster parents, too. I have a deep respect for the research she put into getting good quality ingredients into the homemade baby formula. It [...]
Raw Milk Reality – Facing the Facts
July 26, 2012 By Leave a Comment
As a scientist, who just loves the nitty-gritty details, I’ve always wanted to study the numbers to determine the true health risks of drinking raw milk. It really shouldn’t be too hard. The difficulty is differentiating the lies, innuendo and garbage spewed out by our government from the fact which is mixed in. So you [...]

Everyone’s journey to health will begin a different way. Mine began five years ago after our son, Jeremiah starved to death. He was nineteen gestational weeks but only the size of a twelve week old. Changing how we think about the food we put in our body is difficult. We like the foods we have [...]
