This bonus episode is in direct response to recent news articles regarding the FDA cautioning people to avoid three powdered baby formulas;  Similac, Alimentum and EleCare  If you are feeding your baby these formulas and find yourself in a panic, I want to extinguish your fear and present you with options.  Ten years ago I was not physically capable of nursing directly and I figured out how to make a dairy free baby formula for my first born child due to her severe milk protein allergy.  I did this at a time when no one was doing this and gave it to all three of my children as they were born. They are all healthy and thriving.  In this episode I talk about the story behind my homemade dairy free baby formula and how not to fear it.   If you would like the ingredients and method, I have listed them in my podcast video show notes, found on my youtube channel.  Be sure to click on the notes BELOW the video to view the recipe.  Also, between time stamp 14:02-15:40 I added some photos of my kids before and after I gave them the formula so you can see their progress.  This recipe is adapted from Nourishing Traditions, Weston A. Price foundation. The original recipe calls for whey, but as my daughter has a whey allergy, I eliminated it.
