What is the right START?

NUTRIENT DENSE FOOD

KNOW HOW TO GIVE IT

PARENT DIRECTED FEEDING

KNOW WHAT FOOD IS RIGHT

The baby’s gut is ‘open’ at birth up to at least 18 weeks.

Anything the baby consumes can go right through the intestinal walls and into the bloodstream, which can cause sensitization and allergies. Breast milk contains IgA (Immunoglobulin A) that bathes & coats the gut.

If you cannot breastfeed:

Do not give commercial formula!

Homemade formula is the best solution.

NO Soya milk

No fruit juice

Breast milk contains several

immunities, white blood cells, growth factors, and even stem cells! These help the baby’s

body and brain to develop, and

protect the baby against illness.

PROTEIN:

High in protein

ESPECIALLY in

the beginning.

30-40% Lactose – with enzyme lactase

& lactobacilicus (found in BM & gut)

50-60% Fat – mostly saturated fat. It

is high in lauric acid – great for immune system. It is high in cholesterol. +-

5mg/30ml. (BM –enzyme to ensure 100% absorption of cholesterol)

Baby food: Start @ +-18 weeks

4-6 Months

• Soft-cooked egg yolk with grated raw liver

• Only if the baby seems very hungry – add mashed avocado or mashed banana (contains amylase for digestion)

• (Supplement cod liver oil – ¼-1/2 teaspoon)

6-12 months

• Pureed meat and fish. • Bone broths. • Fermented foods like greek

jogurt and kefir in small amounts.

• Cooked veggies (not fibrous) with butter and coconut oil.

• Mashed soft fruit or cooked and pureed harder fruit with cream.

• Chunks of butter. • Bone marrow- (nourish the

blood)

What’s Wrong with This Picture?

What’s Wrong with This Picture?

Growing Children and teens

• Breakfast: Eggs, butter, avo, kefir, cheese, sourdough bread, oats with butter and cream and cinnamon. Oats (fermented) and eggs pancakes with maple syrup….

• Lunch and dinner: Meat/Fish/Liver/Oxtail/ Chicken/Bone broth/,

Veggies- mostly cooked for young children, but also raw, Fermented veggies, beans and legumes, Kefir with ground flax seed, eggs…

• Snacks, treats and light meals: Cheesecake (Budwig principle), Kefir ice cream with coconut ice cap, Crispy nuts, Fruit with cream, Dark high quality chocolate, Coconut pieces, Home baked milk tart, cake, cookies, biltong…

• Drinks: Water, Kefir, Kombucha, Tea, Homemade Ginger beer and lemonade, raw milk.

Give your children PLENTY of FERMENTED/CULTURED food.

WHY? WHY?

• IN FERMENTED FOODS microbes free minerals out of food, preserve food, manufacture vitamins, detox the food.

• They fight off pathogens and prevent allergic, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.

• The intestine and the intestinal flora together are the biggest immune organ of the body. (around 80% of the immune system)

• Gut flora = innumerable bacteria adhering to the gut wall. We have on average 1.5-4kg of gut flora!!

Avoid Trans Fat !! Trans fat is found in many

processed foods and baked goods, including margarine, shortening, fried foods like

french fries, fried chicken and doughnuts, cookies, pastries

and crackers.

Cholesterol –human milk supplies an infant with almost 6

x the amount of cholesterol adults consume in food.

• The brain houses 25% of the body’s cholesterol

(the brain is only 2% of the total mass of the body).

• Cholesterol is essential for mobility and the entire nervous system. It enhances signal transport at synapses and protects signals from leakage in the myelin sheaths.

• In the membranes of all cells, cholesterol protects from oxidative damage and protects from pathogens (microbes)

• Cholesterol is the precursor to vital hormones: Vitamin D, All the sex hormones (testosterone, estrogen, etc.) and Cortisone: the stress hormone

• Aids in digestion of fats and important for the formation of the GI tract of babies

• Plants contain no cholesterol.

Choline: Essential for Normal Development of Memory

“Choline is a dietary component essential for normal function of all cells. It, or its metabolites, assures the

; it is the major source of methyl-groups in the diet … and it directly affects

. In 1998, the National Academy of Sciences, USA, issued a report identifying choline as a required nutrient for humans and recommended daily intake amounts.”

Cholesterol Sulfate: What’s It All About?

• It is synthesized in the skin (sun exposure) and by red blood cells and platelets.

• Omnipresent in blood serum in small amounts. • Collects around exterior of red blood cells and gives them

a negative charge field – Keeps cells from sticking together or sticking to

capillary walls! (cardiovascular health!) • Sulfate is severely deficient in autistic children

(1/3 the normal level of free sulfate in blood stream) • Sulfate deficiency raises susceptibility to eczema and

asthma • Very important in fetal development.

•Strott, J. Lipid Res. 44, 2003 * Dawson, “Sulfate in Fetal Development,” Semin Cell Dev Biol 2011 •* Schroeder et al., Expert Rev clin Immunol. 6:6, 929-937, 2010.

How to Maintain Adequate Sulfur to form Cholesterol Sulfate in the body.

• Eat eggs (Dr William Shaw) and other sulfur rich foods

• Soak in epsom salts (magnesium sulfate)

• Bask in the sun

We Need:

• Plenty of dietary sulfur

• Plenty of dietary cholesterol

• Plenty of sun exposure

Diet and Lifestyle in most western countries

• The mother is encouraged to eat a diet low in fat and cholesterol and to be sure her children do the same

• The mother is encouraged to avoid sun exposure, and be sure her children do the same, including making liberal use of sunscreen when the children go outside

• Rather use astaxanthin.

• Oils lubricate from the inside.

Sunscreen Use and Skin Cancer

http://evolvingwellness.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/malignant_melanoma_skin_cancer.gif

• The use of sunscreen grew thirty fold in the same time interval!

Cholesterol sulfate and Vitamin D3 sulfate

• By avoiding cholesterol and the sun we also deplete our bodies from Vitamin D3 sulfate.

• Dr Seneff: “Cholesterol and sulfur become oxidized upon exposure to the high frequency rays in sunlight, thus acting as antioxidants to “take the heat,” so to speak. Oxidation of cholesterol is the first step in the process by which cholesterol transforms itself into vitamin D3.”

• This process yields Vitamin D sulfate, which is vastly different than plant-based Vitamin D2 and animal-based Vitamin D3.

• Dr Seneff: “Upon exposure to the sun, the skin synthesizes vitamin D3 Sulfate, a form of vitamin D that, unlike unsulfated vitamin D3, is water soluble. As a consequence, it can travel freely in the blood stream rather than encapsulated inside LDL (the so-called “bad” cholesterol) for transport. The form of vitamin D that is present in both human milk and raw cow’s milk is vitamin D3 sulfate (pasteurization destroys it in cow’s milk).”

Cholesterol sulfate and Vitamin D3 sulfate

• Can the body convert Vitamin D3 supplements into Vitamin D3 sulfate?

Unfortunately, though our bodies are genius chemists, that does not appear to be possible. Synthesis of cholesterol into D3 and sulfur into sulfate occur simultaneously, like mixing eggs and flour/salt/water to bake a cake. You can’t put the eggs in the oven, bake at 350F for 45 minutes and then pull out the pan and add the flour, right? Same thing here.

• Interestingly, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin D3 sulfate are each beneficial in their own way. For example, vitamin D3 is amazing at transporting calcium through the body, whereas:

Cholesterol sulfate and Vitamin D3 sulfate

• Dr Seneff: “The sulfated form of vitamin D does not work for calcium transport . . . [However] it’s the sulfated form of vitamin D that offers the protection from cancer. It strengthens your immune system. It protects you from cardiovascular disease. It’s good for your brain. It helps depression. I think all of those effects of vitamin D are effects of vitamin D sulfate.”

• After Vitamin D sulfate has done its work it converts back to pure Vitamin D and gets to work on bone health. Or, as Dr. Seneff put it “vitamin D3 sulfate parks its sulfate somewhere among the extracellular matrix proteins, helping the blood to stay healthy. Having done that, it becomes vitamin D3 and can then transport calcium.”

Drink Raw Milk!! • Raw milk contains vitamin D3 sulfate • Pasteurization destroys it • Vitamin D2 artificially added to

pasteurized milk is not going to work. • Raw milk is full of enzymes, vitamins and

minerals. • If you do not have access to raw milk, do not drink pasteurized milk. Rather drink bones broths.

• Nutrient dense food as organic and natural as possible.

• Lots of sun exposure.

• Exercise, sport and fun!

• Your love, discipline and time.

• Inner peace with Our Creator and a vision for their lives.

• Every child was Made to be well.
