Troubled Teens Resources

Yesterday’s troubled teens blog told the success story of a mother who completely changed the eating habits of her family, resulting in a remarkable difference in her troubled teens’ behavior.  Today I thought you may want to know some specifics that she included or excluded in her families diet.

Please don’t take this as a medical claim or medical advice. This blog is simply sharing what one mother did.

• Stayed away from food with refined sugars. (used natural sweeteners such as Yacon, honey, real maple sugar, organic sugar cane).
• Avoided foods loaded with sugar period (ie. Soda)
• Foods high in Omega’s (eggs, etc.)
• Used 100% Olive Oil vs other oils
• Avoided anything that was partially hydrogenated (chips, etc)
• Used organic foods whenever possible and affordable
• Consumed hormone free milk, chicken, etc. 
• Consumed foods high in antioxidants (cherries, pomegranates, etc.)
• Consumed food high in naturally occurring B12
• Consumed a Marine Phytoplankton drink (contains over 66 naturally occurring and bio-available vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes, etc.)

As complicated as it sounds, it really isn’t. She basically stuck as close to nature as possible. Back in the day, it was easy to do because there was no other option. Now we have prefabricated foods of every kind, which is great, we just have to look what’s in it.

Hope this helps you and your family.
