Re: Introduction of a new list member

[Guest guest]

Hi!

I'm new here too. My daughter had ADHD and some

oppositional/defiant problems. I started giving her cod liver oil

after reading Megson's article on the WAP website, and near the

same time started giving her raw milk. She is better than normal

now, she's thriving!

My kids love homemade sauerkraut. It especially hits the spot when

you've got a sore throat. I have the book " Wild Fermentation " and

the kimchi recipe in there is delicious! We eat it over salad with

sesame oil. My daughter also likes the beet sauerkraut - same

recipe as regular sauerkraut but shredded beets added. Umeboshi are

another big hit with the kids as they love anything sour.

Nice to meet you!

Sheryl,

Welcome to the list!

I don't have children but this sounds like my SO.

I mix liver into ground beef for hamburgers, meatloaf, tacos, etc. I

haven't gotten him to eat it plain much, although I put diced chicken

liver and onions on top of his chicken salad (with diced veggies) last

week and he thought it was great! (Of course, then he asked what it

was and I stupidly told him and he refused to eat anymore! Augh!)

So far the best method for me has been trying to replace or enhance

existing dietary items with better ones, as opposed to introducing new

ones.

Good Luck!
