This thread has been inspiring. I've seen a few of you mention Garden of Life products. Has anyone actually read The Makers Diet? We love it, it makes complete sene (to us) and we were following it pretty good for a while. But have slipped back to old ways since me getting pg (the 1st trimester is a killer for any eat habit..lol), and moving. But now that we are settled and dd is sick I'm much mroe motivated. We never purchased anything outside the regualr vitamins, but we were very interested in adding probiotics, green food supplements, and esential oils as the book talks about to our daily habits. I'll have to pick my book up again and read it.

As for ear infections and any infections, cows milk (any dairy) is an enemy since it thickens secretions and can make things worse. Whenever any of us gets sick we cut off dairy. Same with refined sugars and most carbs. I was giving dd only goats milk yogurt, but she had some of my cows milk yogurt one day and won't go back. lol, i can't blame her. But we do only give he goats milk for drinking if she wants milk, or to mix in her foods. We gave her goats milk products since day one of introducing any other type of milk besides breastmilk. I was usually buyng goat cheese as well, but they are usually soft and that's tough to pack verses shoving a cheese stick into my purse. lol

Well, again, thanks for the boost ladies! i'm very excited now to return to our Makers Diet.

(For those wondering, it's not a diet like eat onyl ths amount and such and suhc, to lose weight. It's about being healthy off GOd's plan for how we are to eat, and if you want to do it to lose weight,t hen it will just happen if you are eating healthy (and exercsing).)
