I get asked about supplements a lot and specifically, “What is the best multivitamin to use on the Feingold Diet?” We don’t use a multivitamin here for a few reasons. For one, most multivitamins for young kids (meaning ones that cannot swallow pills), are often the fruity gummy varieties, which are Feingold stage two. We […]
I had a good laugh today when I picked up my 3-year old from the nursery after my Bible study. I was told that the child care director said to tell me that I was no longer “allowed” to send in potato chips for my daughter for snack because the other kids wanted them. I […]
I LOVE my dehydrator! I have an Excalibur 9-tray dehydrator. I bought it directly from the manufacturer for about $279 or so. I would also suggest buying a few tray liners along with your dehydrator. I have 7. I bought the Excalibur brand. You will need them if you make beef jerky or fruit leathers. […]
With school starting soon, I’ve been getting requests for the vaccine exemption letter we use. I have this posted within a long post I did on “Why We Don’t Vaccinate”. But, some people have had trouble finding it so I thought I’d post it separately. This one is specific to Illinois so if you […]

Ready for swimsuit season? My daughter is! She puts on her “swimming soup” as she calls it, and begs me to take her swimming. If you’re not as excited about summer, here are a few tips on how to slim down naturally. I don’t believe in the typical diets out there to lose weight because […]
When people hear all the dietary restrictions my kids have, the first question I get is, “What can they eat?”, followed by “What do you feed them?” It’s actually not all that different than what they were eating before, just without the gluten and dairy.
