“Food is a basic essential of life.
But when food becomes toxic to the body, then it is time to re-evaluate what is in the food.
Even so-called fresh produce can be laced with pesticides and GMOs, which can be, and is, terribly toxic to a lot of people, especially small children who are just beginning to grow and develop.
With the increasing use of pesticides and the preference by governments, farmers, food manufacturers and grocers to promote GMO foods, learning to eat wisely and safely is a quagmire of obstacles and unknown variables.
What’s needed?
A useful, informative guide to help young mothers feed their children healthy food alternatives, food that not only is safe for the child, but looks good and tastes delicious.
That’s where this book comes in handy.
Catherine Barnhoorn had to heal herself from many autoimmune conditions and, when her newborn, Mila, started showing unusual and concerning symptoms, this young mother started researching and implementing a healthier, safer diet program for both herself and her new baby.
As she researched and developed hundreds of recipes, she started to develop an idea of an extensive health guide that would not only explain the perils we now face with trying to eat healthily, but also the many options available to improve our eating habits.
The result?
Her 500-page book, Mila’s Meals: The Beginning and the Basics.
This is a must study, must enjoy, healthy eating alternative not only for feeding children, but also for feeding ourselves as adults.
Everything you could possibly ask about the difficult food industry is answered in this book.
Beginning with her own story, Catherine leads the reader through her experiences and sets us up with a course of action: first and foremost, read the labels and be aware of what you are eating.
She complements her discussions with concise charts of the good and the bad in different food groups.
She lays out the research compiled on the subject of food intolerances and allergies, and she provides a great resource of recipes, from snacks to main course meals to yummy desserts, and all that you could possibly want in between.
The glossary is succinct and very thorough and useful.
This is a must have guide for all young mothers and for anyone who wants to eat healthily and stay healthy.
Well done!
A great resource.
Love the photos of Mila.”
