Baby Steps- Transitioning to Traditional Foods in Feburary

by Leave a Comment

Last year on the forum, we started a Baby Steps section to help people new to traditional foods.  Each month, I will be posting those baby steps to the blog in case you’re wanting to start your own Traditional Foods journey.

February continues with the basic steps.

  1. Add vegetable intake via sneaky veggies where it is possible.
  2. Change breakfast to being healthier but in a form that is still acceptable to your family. Move from cold cereal to oatmeal, scrambled eggs, soaked pancakes or waffles and the like.
  3. Change to sea salt if you have not already. Sea salt contains many trace minerals that iodized salt does not.
  4. Start taking cod liver oil.
  5. If you’ve already changed salt and started CLO, consider a trace mineral supplement if you feel you might be deficient.

If you would like to discuss these steps with other traditional foodists, you can do so on our forum.
