I couldn't agree with you more. Sally Fallon made sense of it all for me. She kept it so simple when I attended her seminar in Vancouver BC last spring. Amazing. You have done the same..... Thank you! You hit it straight on, Kay. I couldn’t agree with you more. Sally Fallon made sense of it all for me. She kept it so simple when I attended her seminar in Vancouver BC last spring.

Did you know a lot of the flavoured fish oils aimed at kids have sucralose in them? It's not on the label either, you have to check the website or contact them.

The Positive View: http://ific.org/publications/brochures/acekbroch.cfm The Negative View: http://www.sweetpoison.com/aspartame-sweeteners.html It is hard to know what information is correct or how to interpret the gazillion nutrition messages directed toward our eyes and ears every day. In this case, how do we, to quote Joanne from Nourished "do what we are told"? How do we know what is right for us and our children when the "telling" seems to direct us along disparate paths? My answer is to stop... reduce the amount of information you are processing and make the decision a simple one. Look at your child. Reflect on your love for them. Lightly ruffle the feathers in your heart that belong only to them. Will you give them a Sipahh straw or find a little time to make them a chocolate milk shake using quality ingredients that do not include artificial flavours or sweeteners like Ace-K? Makes every decision easy. Hi Karen - if you (or your readers) would like to know what ace-k is just follow these links (Watch out, they make for some hard reading).

They should be illegal. I just received Barbara Kingslover's new book in the mail, Animal Vegetable Miracle: our year of seasonal eating. She eats locally and seasonally. Can't wait to get my teeth into it. Oh My Goddess. They should be illegal. I just received Barbara Kingslover’s new book in the mail, Animal Vegetable Miracle: our year of seasonal eating.
