Raw Mom Approved Book Review: Creating Healthy Children Through Attachment Parenting and Raw Foods
– Review by Althea Hughes Wills
When someone has a passion for the health of our children, it shows. Karen Ranzi is one of those people. Blessed to have a father and paternal grandmother who were vegetarians and staunch health advocates, Karen proudly follows their traditions. She learned first-hand about the power of raw food by healing herself of gynecological problems, and her son from asthma, ear infections, and allergies.
Parenting and Raw Foods
Creating Healthy Children Through Attachment Parenting and Raw Foods is a comprehensive, thoroughly researched 462 page book. You don’t have to be a parent yet in order to learn from the book. Here are some of the things Karen teaches:
- Pre-conception Health of Parents
Fats in the Raw Food Diet for Pregnancy- Attachment Parenting
- Feeding Baby Uncooked Foods
- Transitioning Older Children to Raw Food
- Modeling Emotional Poise for Our Children
- Homeschooling
- Your Child’s Vision Health
- And much, much more!
I love the depth and passion of this book. Karen interviewed medical doctors, naturopaths, and parents. The research is hard to argue with, even for the most skeptical of readers.
The Parenting Manual I Wish I Had From The Start
This is the book you wish your parents had read before they conceived you.
Seriously. So many parents I know are “un-learning” bad emotional and food habits from their childhood. A lot of us are raising our own children differently because we want to start them off on the right foot. And as I read Karen’s book, I wished I had read it before I became pregnant with my first child.
THE go-to manual for raising emotionally, physically, and mentally balanced human beings, Creating Healthy Children is a winner.
