About Earth Food First
This is the podcast that helps you protect your children's WHOLE HEALTH: body, mind and mood, through food. At Earth Food First, our mission is to reimagine America’s kid food culture! Want to raise veggie lovers, learn how food affects mood, transform “picky-eaters” into “learning eaters,” say good-bye to mealtime drama and learn the recipe to embrace FARM FOOD over FACTORY FOOD? You, my friend, are in the right place! Every Thursday, integrative nutrition coach, cookbook author and toddler mama Lindsay Navama dishes up actionable, unconventional and outside the cereal box ways to help you feed your children the way you really want to—using FOOD as a TOOL to protect their both mental and health, not to mention reduce melt-downs, increase focus and so much more. Despite knowing more than ever before about the critical role food plays in protecting lifelong health, the mental and physical wellness of our youngest citizens has been declining at an alarming rate, according to the CDC, with ⅓ of kids in America being diagnosed with obesity and serious depression having increased among young people by 40% in the last decade. What’s going on?! We have a serious CULTURE PROBLEM. America’s current kid-food culture makes it WILDLY EASY for young people to become addicted to highly processed, factory food early in life and simultaneously VERY DIFFICULT for parents to teach their children to eat the whole, earth foods that actually protect their mental & physical health. If we continue down this processed path, our children’s health will continue to decline, earlier and earlier in life. OR, we can educate ourselves and CHOOSE to rewrite the future, where FARM FOODS once again become the norm and factory foods are forced to be held to higher, healthy standards to earn a SMALL place on our plates and in our lives. Join us weekly for candid conversations with expert guests from around the globe, as we educate, debate and ultimately create a NEW FAMILY FOOD culture, together. We’re excited you’re here and thanks in advance for being BOLD! Join the movement @earthfoodfirst on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/earthfoodfirst/

How to Raise Omni-Eaters & Deter Picky Eating Habits
Has this momprenuer discovered "the secret sauce" to helping parents raise adventurous eaters while deterring picky eating habits? Listen in to decide for yourself! Did you know the sooner we expose our kids to a wider variety of flavors, the less likely they are to develop picky eating habits? But sadly typical American "kid food" culture only represents sweet, salty and fatty—leaving most kids unfamiliar with the bitter, sour and umami—flavor profiles that exist in so many nutrient rich vegetables and other whole foods. Jill Weissman, mom and founder of Beyond the Bib, is on a mission to help expand children's palates early in life with nutrient dense, savory sauces the whole family can enjoy, made with ONLY pure, whole, clean ingredients. But WHY do we need another sauce company, you might be wondering? Jill, who previously sourced ingredients for a very well-known organic baby-food company, tells us EXACTLY WHY and HOW her approach can help us raise "omni-eaters" in our candid, mom to mom convo. If you have kids at home, this episode is a must. After listening you’ll walk away knowing more about: How sauces can be used as a tool to expand children's palates and teach them to enjoy different flavor profiles Jill’s take on a some controversial topics in our current kid-food culture What ingredients to watch out for and avoid in store bought sauces What makes Beyond the Bib different from all other store bought sauce Jill’s top tips for starting your own food brand & her biggest challenges The journey from kitchen testing to mass production Advice for starting a business as a toddler mama CONNECT WITH JILL & BEYOND THE BIBB Website https://beyondthebib.com/ (https://beyondthebib.com/) USE DISCOUNT CODE "EARTHFOODFIRST" for 15% off entire order Instagram @ (https://www.instagram.com/peasandpixels/)beyondthebibfood (https://www.instagram.com/beyondthebibfood/#) PIZZA WAFFLE RECIPE #YUM (https://beyondthebib.com/blogs/toddlermealrecipes/pizza-waffles) https://beyondthebib.com/blogs/toddlermealrecipes/pizza-waffles PIZZA WAFFLE VIDEO (https://www.instagram.com/p/CwTuR2utwDb/) | https://www.instagram.com/p/CwTuR2utwDb/ Earth Food First LINKS FREE GUIDE to raising veggie lovers (https://view.flodesk.com/pages/645012d78c37c66117b4516c): tips & habits + quick recipes + meal plan + grocery lists https://view.flodesk.com/pages/645012d78c37c66117b4516c Join the EFF newsletter (https://earth-food-first.myflodesk.com/food4thought)for weekly recipes, support and inspiration! https://earth-food-first.myflodesk.com/food4thought Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/earthfoodfirst/) (Come hang out for EFF recipes, support & new knowledge) https://www.instagram.com/earthfoodfirst/ WEBSITE: earthfoodfirst.com (https://earthfoodfirst.com/) MY COOKBOOK (https://www.amazon.com/Hungry-Harbor-Country-Southwest-Michigan/dp/1572842873)- Hungry for Harbor Country (discover delicious lake-life anywhere) https://www.amazon.com/Hungry-Harbor-Country-Southwest-Michigan/dp/1572842873 Use discount code: EARTHFOODFIRST for 20% off an order on HappyWolf.com WORTH...

Eat These 3 "Letter C Veggies" for Gut Health & Whole Health
Many veggies start with "C" but these 3 are VIV (very important vegetables) for gut health and today I'm sharing WHY and HOW to help your fam learn to love 'em! Today, our SPOTLIGHT vegetables starting with the letter C are: Cauliflower Cabbage Chard We chose the two cruciferous veggies—cauliflower and cabbage—since they are uniquely powerful when it comes to promoting gut health. You see, these guys are rich in fiber, contain anti-inflammatory compounds, support detoxification, and contain vitamins and minerals crucial for maintaining a healthy gut lining and supporting digestive processes. We're also throwing chard a lotta LOVE. Chard is this epic but underused green that's a great "gateway" green to help kids move beyond spinach and start enjoying more greens because it's softer and less bitter than most kale. GREENS are like the GOLD of vegetables for too many reasons to count. Packed with phytonutrients, essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, they support overall whole health, boost immunity, aid digestion, and reduce the risk of chronic diseases like heart disease and cancer. They're also high in fiber, making them great for promoting a healthy gut. Um… pass the greens, thanks. Let's do this: FIRST we uncover the “magic powers” each vegetable has for our bodies & minds SECOND I’ll share my top tips and tricks for introducing & preparing these veggies with kids in mind THIRD we give you access to 3 EPIC EFF APPROVED recipes to explore, for each Grab the 9 EFF APPROVED recipes: Cauliflower Whole Roasted Buffalo Style Cauliflower (https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a23015451/whole-roasted-buffalo-cauliflower-recipe/) https://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/a23015451/whole-roasted-buffalo-cauliflower-recipe/ Cheesy CauliPOWER Steaks (https://hungryhappens.net/cheesy-cauliflower-steaks/) https://hungryhappens.net/cheesy-cauliflower-steaks/ Mashed Buttered Cauliflower (https://MashedButteredCauliflower) https://www.wholesomeyum.com/keto-mashed-cauliflower-recipe/ Cabbage Napa Cabbage Chinese Chicken Salad (https://pinchofyum.com/napa-chicken-salad-with-sesame-dressing) https://pinchofyum.com/napa-chicken-salad-with-sesame-dressing Braised Red Cabbage with Apples (https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1013028-braised-red-cabbage-with-apples) (sub avocado oil and add nuts before serving) https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1013028-braised-red-cabbage-with-apples The BEST Stuffed Cabbage Rolls (https://www.dinneratthezoo.com/stuffed-cabbage-rolls/#wprm-recipe-container-19197) https://www.dinneratthezoo.com/stuffed-cabbage-rolls/#wprm-recipe-container-19197 Chard Sausage, Greens & Beans Pasta (https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/sausage-greens-and-beans-pasta) https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/sausage-greens-and-beans-pasta Chard and Cheddar Omelet (https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/chard-and-cheddar-omelet) https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/chard-and-cheddar-omelet <a href="https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/swiss-chard-tahini-dip"...

Part 1: START HERE - My Mission Began with Broccoli for Breakfast
Welcome Earth Food First—a movement to protect our kids WHOLE HEALTH: body, mood & mind. America's processed kid-food culture makes protecting our kids' most precious gift, their health, wildly harder and for some parents, just impossible. In 2019, 1 book, motherhood and my own health journey made it my mission to change this harmful kid-food culture. This is that story + 4 tips for raising veggie lovers you're missing. In our first episode you'll find: My personal story behind what inspired me to create Earth Food First: one book, a health diagnoses, and becoming a mom. The 4 top tips for raising veggies lovers you may be missing. Classic "kid-food" culture norms I've replaced with French-inspired, new family food norms to support Stella's mental & physical health. Why every family deserves to better understand the profound effects our current processed kid-food food culture is having on our children's mental and physical health. This week try: Reimagine cooking simple earth foods as a critical life skill to protect our families whole health and recognize the immense value of teaching our children how to cook. At the grocery store, notice the ratio of farm food versus factory food in your cart at check-out. Don’t judge it … JUST take note. Over time try aiming for ¾ farm food in your cart or more.
