Raw Food Diet Pregnancy, Babies and Kids

How Raw (Un)Cooked Food Affects Your Children

Is a raw food diet pregnancy save? Can you feed children a 100% raw vegetable diet? Is there a connection with autism, juvenile diabetes or allergies? How will it affect their social life?

Annet van Dorsser and Esme Stevens interviewed four raw food experts. Gabriel Cousens M.D. with more than 35 years of research and experience and three raw food kids. Watch how they answer your questions.


Advantages Organic Foods Highest for Babies

Gabriel Cousens stresses the importance of organic compared to conventional food.The main cause of death and disease among children under 15 is cancer. Gabriel believes this is largely due to the many pesticides and herbicides - with their carcinogens - in processed and conventional grown food.

The advantages of organic food is highest for babies. The average baby is born with 200 toxins and carcinogens in its body. By the time kids reach their 2nd year, most have pasted the lethal limit for the toxins. By feeding your child organic food, it will have about 1/6th the amount of carcinogens in its body. Thus you will decrease the chances of illnesses significantly.

Therefore, especially for infants and children a raw organic food diet is incredibly important.


Safe Raw Food Diet Pregnancy

If you're on a raw food diet, pregnancy is no reason to stop. Even if you want to start eating raw when you're pregnant, consider this:

Starting a raw food diet pregnancy may cause some mild detox. But eating conventional foods will bring new toxins. In other words, the choice is between old and new toxins. As long as you don't go on a fast, adding raw food to you diet during pregnancy is always a good idea. Then you bring all the good minerals, vitamins, enzymes, co-factors and everything else your baby needs.


How to Prevent Obesity in Kids

One out of three children in the US is overweight and other countries are following rapidly. These children have the same risk of disease as overweight adults, but at a much younger rate. Juvenile diabetes, cancer, allergies to name a few. The World Health Organization has estimated that - for the first time in history - children born today will not live as long as their parents.

If your kids eat raw food, they will not be overweight. You, as parents, can protect them from horrible diseases. Your choice: pizza, candy, and cancer OR raw ice creams, smoothies, fruits, raw chocolate cake and health. The video below shows that the parents' fear that the kids will miserable if they cannot eat french fries and hamburgers is not grounded.

Raw vegan kid Blake (10), son of Brian and Anna Maria Clement of the Hippocrates Health Institute, goes to a normal private school in Florida. He's a hero and leader in his class. Other kids want to eat as he does, being raw and vegan is cool. Tom (11) was features in the Dutch documentary "RAUW". Julan is a good friend of Tom.

Diabetes, Autism and Immunizations

Vaccinations seem to be connected with autism. The rate of autism is greatly increasing since people started vaccinating. The rate of juvenile diabetes, as tested in Finland, increased 154% after they added 3 different vaccinations. New Zealand added two vaccinations to their program. This resulted in a 62% increase in juvenile diabetes. This has many reasons, but the point is that vaccinations seem to disorder the nervous system and seem to be connected to some level of autism and candida That’s one issue.


ADHD and Food Link

Kids have way too many sweets and chemicals. Their mental states are very agitated. By now the sweets have pesticides and herbicides. Some research suggests that 50% of the hyperactivity would be reduced, if they had organic food. Put them on an organic diet and a low sugar diet and look at certain allergies, that may also cause nervous system or cerebral allergies. Hundreds of studies at schools and prisons whereby processed food was replaced by fresh produce proofed that most of the hyperactivity is diminished.
