Lookin' Pretty Healthy!


Here are my three boys: Zachary, Tyler, and Brandon (ignore the date on there-this is from the 4th!). I was just looking through some pictures today, and I noticed a real difference in their appearance! Not just the obvious, "Look how they've grown!", but a difference in them that can only be credited to a healthier diet. As I have mentioned before, my younger boys, ages 9 and 11, and have been gluten/casein (dairy) free since March. Since then, their Raw intake has increased dramatically to probably 50%+. My oldest has increased his Raw fruit/veggie intake as well-he is my Smoothie Partner! The circles under their eyes have diminished, their skin is smooth-(without eczema!), their eyes just seem brighter and more alive. My 14 year old has the best skin of all his friends! I wish more parents would understand the extremely important part diet plays in the health, and behavior, of their children. I thought I would talk a little about this topic to support those of you who are doing similar things, and to inspire others who are thinking about it.

Good looking boys!!

Changes in my skin are one of the best I've seen. It's so smooth and my face pores are smaller. These boys will love it that they won't be a pimply teen through high school.

You rock Mom!!!!!!!
