Dr. Oswal, creator of the homeopathic g-therapy medicine {www.g-therapy.org} recommends that children avoid all meats and to adhere to a strict vegetarian diet while the child is on g-therapy. My daughter Sophia is taking g-therapy and our family tried for a limited period to adhere to a completely vegetarian diet. However, we found that we were not culturally suited to follow a strict vegetarian lifestyle. So, we compromised and eliminated most meats while Sophia is taking her g-therapy supplements. My wife Megan only cooks meats about three nights a week and we recently started making better meat choices by chossing ground-turkey, salmon, and chicken for meals where we have meat. We have a vegetarian breakfast and lunch that focuses on whole foods, grains, berries, fruits, and vegetables. Dr. Oswal would prefer a 100% vege diet, but for us, this was the best we could do. We still saw remarkable developmental progress with Sophia while following a limited meat consumption diet. I will say that I've grown to enjoy our complete vegetarian dinners. Megan has acquired various vegetarian cookbooks and she now makes a great lentil casserole and creates an array of all vege dinners. Megan also juices natural fruit juices every day with our Breville Juicer. I'm a southern raised guy, and if you told me that I would be eating this healthy 5 years ago, I would have said no way! Today, I can say I'm very happy that our family has moved toward a more natural / holistic diet with limited meat intake.
Dr. Oswal instructs that artificially flavored foods should be avoided. Most processed American food products contain artificial colors, artificial flavoring and preservatives. But, you don't have to eat this way anymore. The Feingold Association http://www.Feingold.org/teaches people how to buy food that is 100% color free, dye free, chemical free, and preservative free. Better choice processed foods are available in your local supermarket, one just has to learn how to read labels and learn how to locate the right foods, right brands, etc. Our family has been a practicing "Feingold Family" for the last 4 years. Once you start living this way, you will never go back to your former dietary habits. The goal is to move toward a more comprehensive whole foods diet while consuming less processed foods. Natural, organic whole fruits, vegetables and grains now dominate our dietary intake.
Once you get use to eating this way, it's no big deal. The Feingold Association will guide you on how to implement the lifestyle changes. This stuff is simple. For example, you can't have Doritos, it has tons of artificial stuff, but Tostitos are completely natural with no preservatives. We still eat potato chips, but we don't eat the flavored chips, we have the Lay's Natural Sea Salt Potato Chips. Feingold will guide you on which brands to buy. The Feingold Association has essentially become the Consumer Reports of the food industry for families who want to eliminate preservatives and artificial stuff in their diets.
