Good Morning America and the Doctors’ Thoughts on Gerber Rice Cereal for Infants
Good Morning America had a segment with a few doctors describing differing points-of-view about feeding children Gerber Rice Cereal and the link to Obesity.
I am going to side with the doctor who implied that childhood obesity is generated by feeding infants Gerber Rice Cereal. Look parents…the rice has been processed. I continue to tell you that adults should only be eating whole grains, not Cheerios, not Rice Krispies, and this applies to infants and young children, too.
The doctor that I agree with suggested that parents choose whole grains like brown rice, instead of processed white rice cereals. Duh!
I will tell you that my own mother succumbed to the Gerber advertising campaign when I was too young to complain while she fed me that gruel. I developed horrible food allergies. Thanks, Gerber! But no thanks…
It was long into my teenage years that I made the connection between skin conditions and food selections. My parents and my doctors were clueless!
When I finally went to college, I moved to a city where they had a Food Co-op with health foods and bulk foods. I noticed an immediate and profound change in my health and it continued to improve as I changed my diet and began to eat whole grains and organic foods. I eliminated wheat, corn, and many of the other common foods that people have sensitivities to along with processed foods with chemicals. It worked like magic, but it really was based upon common sense. It changed my Life.
I refused to feed my children Gerber or any of the usual baby foods. I was well-known for having a food grinder at my table and preparing healthy foods for my children at the table from what I had prepared for everyone else joining me for dinner. My children never suffered from agonizing allergies.
So if you are trying to decide whether or not to feed your child cereal as you venture into whole foods, then be wise and make the choice for whole grains, organic vegetables and fruits, fresh juices from real food, and purified water.
Now…there are organic baby foods that I can recommend. Although these are going to be fine for your infant, it is far better to make your own baby food for your children. They will learn to love to eat a variety of whole foods when you set the example from your own table.
You should be willing to introduce your children to different ethnic cuisines and expand your children’s horizons when it comes to their culinary education. They may come to be health advocates of a number of cuisines from around the world. They will be more intelligent, more balanced, and more competent that their peers who eat processed foods. This will give them a distinct advantage in Life…
