Feeding Baby Green

By Stephanie Eckelkamp

Review:
Attention health-minded moms and dads: If you’ve ever wondered what to feed your kids—and how to get them to eat it!—check out Dr. Alan Greene’s latest book, Feeding Baby Green. It’s an all-encompassing guide on how to feed your child from before they’re born up to age eight. This easy-to-read, engaging, and informative parenting book will make mealtimes easier on you and healthier for your kids.

Dr. Greene packs so much information into the book that it could be overwhelming, but he makes perfect sense of the natural lifestyle he supports by giving easy suggestions, clear explanations, and interesting tidbits of information. For instance, did you know that the foods pregnant women eat can actually influence their child’s future food preferences? Or that the weight babies gain during their first week of life can predict their chances of growing up to be overweight adults? Feeding Baby Green is chock full of surprising and useful information like that, paired with tips you can easily put to use.

Product Description:
In this book, Dr. Greene promotes a back-to-basics, healthier approach to feeding your baby—and yourself. He begins by painting a picture of the food he grew up with: Cool Whip, the Pillsbury Dough Boy, and the Quarter Pounder were all popular, and the abundance of jarred and powdered baby food was overwhelming. Dr. Greene connects these culinary “innovations” to the current obesity epidemic and the prevalence of other diseases.

The book’s sections will teach you the benefits of nutrition for your family, how to eat during pregnancy, what to serve your baby, and how to carry healthy food choices into the toddler years and beyond. Within each section, Dr. Greene gives nutritional guidance and lifestyle advice for every stage of pregnancy and childhood. You’ll learn how your nutritional requirements change during pregnancy (did you know women need 50 percent more protein during the second and third trimester?); how to make your own baby food; how you can exercise appropriately for you and your baby during and after pregnancy; and how to engage toddlers in new flavors.

In addition to the main text, Dr. Greene includes sections throughout the chapters that highlight recipes, studies, personal stories, and more to expand on his ideas. You’ll find valuable tidbits on everything from the nausea-reducing effects of ginger to how to choose an eco-friendly diaper that will fit your needs.

This book is a must-read for all parents, whether they’re getting ready for a baby on the way or they already have a brood at home.
