While this book is titled "Raw Food for Babies," it is so much more. Yes, the author gives detailed schedules on how and when to feed babies raw, when to introduce fruits and vegetables when breastfeeding and then some.But babies grow into children and then into adults. Along the way, they have to begin eating the foods the family is eating. So, we are given clear information on raw food for the entire family, baby's schedules, and marvelous recipes for the entire family.I instantly perked up when the author stated, "This book shares the nutritional secrets German and Swiss doctors, dentists and scientists have discovered since the 1930s." So why aren't we privy to this information? According to the author, "pertinent research literature has not yet been translated into English" and "there is a lot of money to be made with disease."Some interesting facts most are not aware of are offered, such as, one should eat raw food before cooked since raw food digests more quickly than cooked to help energize. Moreover when cooked food is eaten first, leukocytes are stimulated as if the body was fighting inflammation. When raw is eaten before cooked, the immune response isn't activated.Even if you don't have a baby and eat a mixed diet of cooked and raw food, you are going to want this book for the recipes AND the valuable information. Highly recommended.
