Start Growing Healthy Children Before Getting Pregnant
When I was in my early 20’s, I read Adele Davis’s book, “Let’s Eat Right To Keep fit.” I learned from her that “you are what you eat.” I also learned that our babies are what we eat while we are pregnant, and then are what they eat once they are born. If you nurse your babies, then they continue to be what you eat as long as you are nursing them. My bible during my first pregnancy over 38 years ago was “Let’s Have Healthy Children,” also by Adele Davis. I started to follow her guidelines way before getting pregnant, knowing that my health had a big effect on my baby’s health.

Milk Soy Protein Intolerance: A Mothers Perspective
I first learned of Milk Soy Protein Intolerance MSPI in the office of a pediatric gastroenterologists office with my seven-week-old son, Max.After the first week of his life Max lost weight and was labeled "failure to thrive." As an educated mother and nurse I was devastated that this could happen.That day in the GI specialists office, he performed a proctosigmoidoscopy and biopsy on Max. He sat me where I could see him perform the test and told me what I would see. He said that the lining of the bowel would be red, swollen and bleeding, and it was.I just sat there and cried. After the test was over and I could hold Max, Dr. Mack told me that MSPI was indeed what Max had and that I should stop breastfeeding right away and put him on a special formula.He told me that there was a diet I could follow if I wanted to continue breastfeeding, but that it was very stringent and difficult.Wanting to make the best choice for my son, I stopped breastfeeding that day and started him on Alimentum.The results were dramatic.After one bottle of Alimentum he slept for 2 and 1/2 hours straight; the longest he had ever slept.

Metaphors of the Mind Part I
The brain and, by implication, the Mind has been compared to the latest technological innovation in every generation. The computer metaphor is now in vogue. Computer hardware metaphors were replaced by software metaphors and, lately, by neuronal network metaphors. Such attempts to understand by comparison are common in every field of human knowledge. Architects and mathematicians have lately come up with the structural concept of "tensegrity" to explain the phenomenon of life. The tendency of humans to see patterns and structures everywhere even where there are none is well documented and probably has its survival value added.
