Please read to the end. Shared from a friend but we are following this as well. Please join us!!
“Think about this. As soon as our kids wake up, (Even us adults..) In so many ways they are fed sugars, dyes, and preservatives and then adults get mad at them for lashing out, not sitting down, not paying attention and not being quiet at school.
Hear my heart. This post is not to shame anyone 💕Let’s just think about cause and effects and getting to the root. I’m not sure why this day and age we can’t bring awareness to anything without being accused of shaming people. Not living offended is awesome. Trust me, I’ve had muffins in my cart before too so y’all stay calm 😳
Could it be possible that many times a child doesn’t have whatever “label” they like to put on kids, they are just sugared out and malnourished!?!!
Breakfast. Sugary cereal. Sugary oatmeal from a packet. Sugary yogurt. Sugary pop tarts. Processed food. Bread with synthetics. Chocolate milk.
Snack time. It’s whoever’s birthday or holiday or theme day so it is blue and red dye, frosting and a bunch of sprinkles. Plus a Capri mystery sun pack full of sugar. (And y’all…I love to decorate baked goods but I switched to natural food dyes)
So much blood sugar dysregulation going on!
Trust me…we have a big family, there’s always a reason to celebrate…I get it. But our whole family now tries to sub out healthier ingredients!
But lunch. We will get it right with lunch.
If you get to pack a lunch it’s probably a nutritional deficient sandwich, 300 empty calories of a lunchable, Doritos (what is even in these 😳) 25 grams of a sugar juice box and of course they need a sweet to complete the lunch.
Hot lunch? Let’s see what is in that!!
Or you can get peanut butter and jelly on bread loaded with added synthetics that you can’t even swallow unless you chase it down with milk.
And be sure to scarf it all down in 15 mins or less. And the “or less” happens if class runs longer or students are misbehaving. (Do you know what happens to your digestive system when you don’t chew your food properly??)
So... here’s a thought.
🤗 Let’s go on a journey step by step, to taking better care of ourselves and our children. Let’s treat food as fuel. Let’s quiet the doctors and psychologist and school counselors who don’t acknowledge the impact food has on these issues. 🤗
Let’s get to the real root cause. Don’t let them blanket diagnose children! (I didn’t say never diagnose…for all those attacking me)
Let’s understand that the standard well accepted “foods” are actually known to cause hyperactivity, cancer, autoimmune struggles and blood sugar issues. Let’s also recognize this is the cause for many of these “bad kids.”
Gut health is raging out of control and the gut brain connection is a real thing. Gut health is my passion! I can offer something to try that I’ve seen help so many. 💕💕
These kids and yes also us, need more real food, protein, fruits & veggies, less sugar, zero dyes, probiotics (I know where you can get a life changing one just ask me) and omegas in their life to be equipped to deal with an 8 hour work day most adults could hardly stand.
Can we all PLEASE start changing this? One snack at a time, one meal at a time. We can do better! Change isn’t always easy but it is possible! Our kids deserve better and we do too. Don’t let them simply blanket label our kids and grandchildren. Get to the root cause!!
I am very grateful as a single mom that I get to be at home and homeschool….but even my home has gotten a bit off track lately in grabbing whatever is easiest. It happens!! This is not about perfection but balance.
Today is a fresh day to make a step in the right direction! You can do this!!
I’m currently doing a 2 week holistic health challenge to stabilize blood sugars, help your gut and get back to the basics. We can do better friends…and we can encourage each other in the process!!”
