Newborn Feeding

Recently a mother called me to ask if the formula she was feeding her child was a good one, as he was having colic. I told her it was not. No formula replaces breastmilk. It’s kind of like putting water in your radiator in an emergency, but you wouldn’t expect your car to run as well if you did that all the time. Cow’s milk formula is made to make calves as smart as their mothers, goat’s milk is meant to make kids (baby goats) as smart as their mothers, and human mother’s milk is meant to make your child as smart as you! And I know you are smart because you’re reading this blog 🙂

In fact, studies have shown that intelligence of breastfed children is higher than that of formula-fed children.

Washing the essential antibacterial ‘gook’ off the baby delays nursing and covers the skin in toxins (included in Johnson’s baby shampoo). Then examining the baby and giving vaccinations further delays the time until nursing, which is not how we have been made to function. After baby nurses, then he can be examined. This will ensure that nursing starts more easily for mom and baby.

Don’t take my word alone–see what La Leche League consultants say:

Newborn feeding

I recently read an article by La Leche League that deserves to be shared with you. You will learn the most important parts of breastfeeding and why many factors in current hospital delivery can make it more difficult for baby to nurse. Do you know to what location the baby should be delivered? It’s actually mom’s chest/abdomen. The baby has been hearing your heartbeat for 9 months, and the sound of your heartbeat is soothing.

Homeopathy at every stage 2

The last post dealt with a terminal case of hepatitis. Homeopathy can help people truly reverse disease, but the amount that they can reverse the disease before the disease overtakes the person is a balance that is different for every person. A person with stage IV cancer, on the right remedy, can have less pain, and her family members can see the color return to her face, on the right homeopathic remedy. Some people with stage IV cancer can recover, but even if that is not the goal, a well-chosen homeopathic remedy can bring more balance to the body, resulting in fewer symptoms and an increased quality of life. And that is truly the goal of any health care provider.

Homeopathy at every stage 1

Homeopathy stimulates the body to become more in balance. Although we tend to be more out of balance with age, things like eating well, managing stress, and getting enough sleep can help bring us into balance. It truly is possible to add health and balance at any age or stage of disease. For example, a colleague of mine reported the case of a terminally ill man with hepatitis. He was unable to be coherent enough to speak with his family. After the medical doctor gave the appropriate homeopathic remedy, he was able to be lucid for a few minutes. His family was able to say their goodbyes. Homeopathy didn’t cure his hepatitis, but it enabled him and his family to have some powerful moments.
