Additive-free Kids: We keep losing foods - are lectins the reason?
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2008/10/we-keep-losing-foods-are-lectins-reason.html
Friday, October 3, 2008. We keep losing foods - are lectins the reason? Annabelle now has a problem with quite a few foods. Going out to a restaurant is quite an issue as she can't really eat any of the food and I have to take some with me - and a lot of places don't like it. Issues now are: gluten, oats, A1 cheese, yoghurt and milk, almonds, cashews, tomatoes, capsicums, avocados, eggplant, potatoes, soybean oil, oranges. Even going for a quick bite to eat is a nightmare. "Is it gluten free?

Additive-free Kids: August 2007
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 9, 2007. Solvent as an ingredient? Now I understand that like all chemicals they can be quite hazardous in large amounts - or at 100% concentrations. However I don't want to eat solvent. Thanks. I also don't want it near me - and why? So read the labels. As for me - I am throwing out the wipes and will buy some flannels - we'll go back to doing things the old-fashioned way. And as for DD#1 - we won't be buying any more fruit bread 'treats'. Anyway, things have been busy at home and I had...

Additive-free Kids: November 2007
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 16, 2007. Today was a bright clear sunny day so as it has been a long weekend we figured we would take Katie (and baby sister) out to Castle Hill for walk. It is very suited for little kids really - and even has toilets! It was great to be able to take them into the mountains as it is something we don't do enough of! The walk up to the rocks was pleasant and quite busy with tourists and locals alike as well as climbers hauling their matresses around, practising. Tuesday, November 13, 2007.

Additive-free Kids: October 2007
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2007_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 21, 2007. Introducing Katie to the outdoor life. Annabelle goes in the backpack so we don't have to worry about her too much yet. Anyway this weekend we took her to Godley. Head for an introduction. The day was beautiful - windy but very warm. She loved running round and exploring. It actually took us over an hour to do the 30 minute walk - but we did see everything. At least twice. And most rocks were scrambled up on. And all sheep bleated at. You get the idea. I have grown tired of spen...

Additive-free Kids: May 2008
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 2, 2008. Here's some advice - and please correct me if I am wrong:. Replacing dairy - there are many ways to get dairy. If A1 milk (normal for many countries) is a problem - then try A2 - human milk, goats milk and specific. Types of cows are A2. Annabelle has no problem with A2 cows milk but gets chronic diarrhoea and stomach cramps with any type of A1 - milk, cheese, cream or yoghurt. Iron, and has other health concerns - not which the least is affecting blood clotting ability! What you CAN...

Additive-free Kids: May 2007
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 26, 2007. Well we knew that additives affected daughter #1, but boy! What a terrible day! Today yesterday's party, she has been argumentative, shouty. She has refused to co-operative and has had several time-outs when she normally doesn't need any! She has deliberately wee-ed on the carpet three times! So the question is - is it worth it? After a day like today, if it. The additives then I would definitely say no. The only thing I can think of is that you stuff them full of food. Unfortunat...

Additive-free Kids: Food and nutrition is so important
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2008/05/food-and-nutrition-is-so-important.html
Friday, May 2, 2008. Food and nutrition is so important. I have been doing load of research since my last post. First an update:. Hubby is now dairy and gluten and soy free. But not celiac. He had the blood and stool test - and then a biopsy - which you can read about on his own blog. Annabelle had the tests too - but the results were negative even though she has a rash, stomach cramps and diarrhoea to boot if she has a hint of gluten! Katie continues to react to any azo. Intolerance. It is a very ne...

Additive-free Kids: Why no interest here in new zealand regarding additives?
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2009/05/why-no-interest-here-in-new-zealand.html
Monday, May 11, 2009. Why no interest here in new zealand regarding additives? Here it is still very easy to buy additive laden foods that masquerade as healthy foods for kids. I really did think that manufacturers would take a bit of notice what was happening in the UK. To be honest, some did and changed sugar levels, swapped to natural colourings etc - but there was no big public outcry. January 2, 2010 at 9:40 PM. The problem lies in the fact that the companies and government help each other out on th...

Additive-free Kids: Wine and beer
http://whatyoufeedthem.blogspot.com/2008/02/wine-and-beer.html
Tuesday, February 12, 2008. Although I prefer my drinks additive free I do understand that sulphites are part of the wine making process. Here in New Zealand we have some incredible wine makers (some just up the road from here) and are renowned for the whites - sav blanc, chardonnay. But even these seem to have added sulphites. However the fantastic news is that Steinlager have brought out 'steinlager pure'. Additive free and just totally delicious. Apparently the company can't keep up with demand.
