Hi Everyone,
This is a great group. Hake you taken a look at www.rawmom.com
it is a wonderful site on raising raw kids, among other things. We have a new newsletter called 'Raw Mom Times.' To find out more contact Tera, or Jamie.
I also have a new book coming out next year that Stephani McGirr has been writing with me called, 'Healthy Kids In A Toxic World.' You can check out some sneak peaks of the book (in my side show) on my page or in my picture file. Let me know what you think.

Hi everyone!
I am also new to the group and have just recently transitioned to raw after being vegan for several years.
Nicola, I have a two year old as well. And I have noticed that he is intrigued by almost everything he sees me eat! Whether it s a green smoothie, fresh fruit/veggies and even my nori wraps. Maybe it's because I have always given him what I ate in the past like tabouleh, hummus, grape leaves (I love Mediterranean dishes), Indian curries & even Ethiopian food.
My point in mentioning this is, I think our children are much more open and receptive to new dishes than we tend to believe. You simply have to be creative and demonstrate how delicious a new dish is by first eating it with great pleasure in front of them. They watch everything we do and tend to take their cues on how to react to something foreign or new from us.
Good Luck on your journey and Happy New Years everyone!

Peace Everyone!
I'm new to the group and new to Raw Food after being a Vegan for years. I have a 3 year old son who will pick all the fresh veggies off of a dish and only eat select things like broccoli. He'll eat the dehydrated veggies w/ dip and green smoothies as long as there is lots of fruit in them. If anyone has suggestions on how to get him to eat the fresh veggies straight let me know.

This post aggravates me.
excellent synopsis, thanks for the reminder. I work in a cafe, and I shudder everytime someone asks for sugar free products!
Hi Isabel,
I wish it were that fast and easy, and I wish I could give you a formula. Unfortunately, how long it takes each person to detox depends much less on someone's age, but rather on the intersection between the level of toxicity of the bod...
