Educating Our Kids About Real Food | Liz Haselmayer of Homegrown Education

This podcast has by far been my favorite one. I went to school and got a bachelors in Nutrition and everything she's saying is true, but for some reason it is not being broadcast to the world like it should be because of marketing and money hungry companies targeting children with disregard to their health. You discuss never buying convivence foods like granola bars, crackers etc.. people don't realize how easy it is to make them at home in a much healthier way.

This is my favorite podcast yet. I grew up eating all the junk and now I'm trying to heal a very damaged gut and all the health issues that come along with that. It is my passion to teach my kids the things I didn't know about nutrition and equipping them with the tools to make better food choices than I did growing up.

Maybe my favorite episode you’ve ever done! So good

We got super serious about nutrition in our family after adopting two children who spent the first halves of their lives in an orphanage in a developing country. When we grafted these severely malnourished, mineral deficient, and developmentally delayed children into our family it was a huge wake up call. We couldn't play around with food anymore. We became more consistent with living off of real food only. We completely cut out seed oils, artificial sweeteners, dyes, and processed foods. It was incredible to watch our whole family benefit, but especially the two newest members (one of whom when we adopted her at four years old weighed just 19.5 pounds and couldn't walk.) Food has healed her body! She learned to crawl, walk, and sleep through the night just by getting a family and proper nutrition. Food is medicine and life giving. Thanks for sharing this powerful information.

thanks for sharing with us!

The one thing I found worked really well is doing a buffet-style dinner and always making sure there was something in the choices that I knew the picky child had eaten before. And tried to make sure dinner was at the same time every day so no snacking needed because they were 'hungry'. It worked and as we all do, their tastebuds changed over time.

Teaching kids about REAL FOOD is so important! It starts at home ❤ If we want to change the future for our kids….this is a great way to do it 🙌

[@kaylarutherford4421]

Love this podcast! Just started tuning in and I have a picky eater. This is so helpful and I love the way you both look at nutrition for our health! Thank you for sharing this!

Very interesting discussion! I want to also mention that people should check out their local Community Share Agriculture (CSA) options. It is a great way to get produce (and sometimes meat, depending on the farm) directly from the farm with no middleman. Not only is it a great way to eat seasonally (whatever is in season is what you get), but also you can support a small local organic farm in your area. I am so happy with the program and I find I only have to supplement very minimally with grocery store produce (and during the off season, as CSA doesn’t send produce during the winter if you live in a Northern climate). It is also probably more cost effective than buying organic produce individually at the grocery store in most cases.

Great conversation! I especially liked the portion about adding nutrients, not subtracting and demonizing certain food groups. I was told through testing that I am lactic and casein intolerant. We cannot get raw milk in Colorado to try, unless we buy a share of a cow. But, I drank some in Texas recently and had absolutely no trouble at all. I was so excited and it tastes amazing! Do you know how/where to petition to get a state to consider changing their laws on raw milk, and how difficult is it? I also wanted to add that I only had $40 per week for my food budget for my family of four in the 1990’s (we didn’t have any extra to spend on extras) and we ate well. It was so fun to challenge myself and we would occasionally eat the “junk” food when the grocery stores offered double and triple coupons and could get them for free or close to free. Otherwise, I mostly cooked completely from scratch, but it would have been helpful to know then what i know now!!

[@macnlace]

Contact your state legislators. Montana was able to change their laws in the last couple of years, so I know it can be done!

Making your own deli meat is also incredibly easy. It’s just time. Much like making yogurt, you just need a bit of learning and some time and then you have something that has no preservatives and is tasty.

Born in ‘85 too, and my story goes the same way, and I’ve also lived diet free for about 5 years since I had children. I even went down the vegan route and with an eating disorder for a while. Now I consume mostly animal foods, lots of fats, and nourishing food as well. My fertility shot through the roof and I’ve never been healthier and I even look prettier now that I’m the weight the Lord made me to be and the foods I consume. So lovely to hear other women speak the same language, and with similar stories. And Lisa, you look gorgeous!

[@viralprimenetwork]

Absolutely love this video, so helpful!

[@a_butterfly2493]

Great episode, Lisa! I really enjoyed it

[@j87waldo]

I love frugal gardening ... I try to save every that will grow stuff in it ...

[@jackimanley3056]

Ooo! I am planning on doing the homegrown curriculum for our science next year!

[@avalle05]

I changed my diet when I had kids but never really had good information as to why I should leave the cow products or eat more of this and not that. I wish I could buy a farm with a cow and chicken today, haha. I appreciated this podcast so much and shared it with friends. Thank you ladies, i think I'll go have a cup of raw milk!

Perfect Supplements is my favorite collagen by the way :) It is high quality.

[@jamie-leewatson3565]

This was fantastic!

Amazing Podcast!! Thank you

Thanks for listening

Truvani makes a very healthy organic collagen peptides mix and a bunch of other good ingredient products.

[@gracecoffeeandchaos.3446]

My children & I are allergic to dairy & gluten, which is what set me on my whole food journey.

[@tamarasself-sufficientlife7539]

You bring up great points. I don’t believe in eliminating any food in my whole-food, from-scratch eating. However, my portions must be too large, because my weight is too high. I certainly love this way of eating, just need help with portion size.

[@courtneymellinger7540]

What do you do when your husband is the picky one?? As a child he didn’t have the enzymes in his stomach to digest fruits and vegetables, his body would just throw them up. While he seems to have out grown that physically, mentally he just thinks he doesn’t like most fruits or veggies and he’s very particular about textures. He is learning more about nourishing foods and wants to eat better but he doesn’t think he can handle it and is often afraid to try things for fear of throwing up. I try to make small positive changes like making sourdough things and switching to chickpea noodles, which he likes better than regular noodles, but we want to homestead and I want to have a garden but what’s the point of having it if the only thing he will eat out of it are potatoes?

[@RaysForDays]

Great podcast!!! ❤ does anyone know anything about "super greens" mix by "country farms"?

[@Monika-ek1gi]

Hi Lisa, could you educate us about it too and make detailed videos how to cook from scratch ? It honestly seems to me like so much hard work to cook from scratch all the time and it's hard to do it with little kids and no help so maybe you could also encourage us and show how to not see this as such a hustle?

[@ProLifeCharlotte]

How is collagen peptide not another processed food? Why not get the collagen from homemade bone broth (less processed?). It seems like another fad to me much the same as protein powders were all the rage. If you're recommending getting the nutrition from real food, why in the same conversation recommend the latest popularized food industry product? What am I missing?

[@tml3982]

Excellent question! I was wondering this myself.

[@daniellebrooks1772]

Great episode, heads up about apple gate, they are located below Ohio where the railroad had a crash and tons of toxic substances were released. ( so anywhere below that, and how water flows have and will have many many issues) .. I’m going to leave it at that.

Unfortunately, the makeup is only for your caucasian viewers. The tones are only available for various skin colors that do not have a dark complexion. This makeup is clearly only meant for white buyers, pitty because I wanted to try it out.

[@5NFarm]

Can you tell me the name of the wall and trim color in your cottage?

[@AngelaMason-q6r]

Hi! I follow you here and on Farmhouse on Boone, and I was just curious, *no judging, but have you considered making your FOB channel name match the podcast for easier visibility? Also, since you don't live on Boone anymore, does that make logical sense to you? Like, SFL & SFL Podcast for example. Have a beautiful day :)

[@sanjadakic7601]

Hi Lisa! I'm originally from Croatia and English is not my first language. What is the name of organic make up you are using? P.S. I love listening to your podcast 😊 It's very inspiring ✨️

Not trying to be snarky, really… but how are collagen peptides a whole, real, 1859 food? I am puzzled by that. Thank you.
