You might try nut milk. It's surprisingly milky.
Soak overnight (or 8 hours) 1 cup to 1.5 cup of raw, untoasted almonds. Put in blender with water. 3 cups (to four if using more nuts). Blend. Can be used as is. But for a more milk-like experience, strain the blended mixture through a fine cloth (finer than cheesecloth). Put the strained liquid into the rinsed blender. Add 2 tbls honey (or even better Maple syrup) and 1 tsp sea salt (or reg is ok). Blend. Put in container for use. This being a raw product won't last for too long - a couple days. So use it up. |

There are conflicting reports about bone meal supplements. :-) Coral Calcium seems to hold some promise. What many people do not realize tho' is that calcium, when taken by itself, rarely does any good. It needs to be balanced with Mag. and Phos. Really. I learned that when rehabbing wild baby birds. Mineral balance is imperative for proper bone deposition and development. Same goes for mammals. Dairy products seem to be highly absorbable, and balanced. I don't drink milk, (it's way too high in calories!) but I do eat yogurt and cheese, and take a BALANCED mineral supplement. IMHO, growing children should have all the milk that they want unless they are obese. Just a personal view! Soy has been linked to infertility in males in some research. On the upside, the planet is overpopulated anyway, so infertility is not necessarily a bad idea. ;-) That's my political statement for the day. <G> K. -- >^,,^< Cats-haven Hobby Farm >^,,^< >^,,^< "There are millions of intelligent species in the universe, and they are all owned by cats" -- Asimov Custom handcrafts, Sterling silver beaded jewelry http://cgi3.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAP...s&userid=katra |

My almost 2 year old son is dairy-, egg-, and multiple other allergic. Since I'm still nursing him, I'm off it too. Himself has milk in tea and cereal, but that's about it. We do take multis (all of us) and little himself takes a daily dose of calcium (with his multi drops). Thankfully, he likes fresh veggies :-). Don't get me wrong...I love and miss milk, butter, yogurt and plenty other things. Soy cream cheese and sour cream are good subsitutes...but I'm dying for some butter. Or shortbread. Or freaking caramel!!! :-) But we do what is best for the children, hopefully with strict avoidance, he'll outgrow the allergies (there's a fighting chance of that...80%, I think we were quoted). -- 'Tis Herself |

Coral > Calcium is *nothing* more than Calcium Carbonate... Might as well knock > back a bottle of Tums... Oh dear... You DO know that coral calcium is more widely available than the scam infomercials? Even "Now", one of my favorite brands of supplements, is carrying a coral calcium supplement! Twinlabs is not tho' which is a good sign of it's lack of usefulness. Twinlabs is one of the best supplement companies in the world right now... Yeah, I'm dubious about it, and think I'll stick with my mixed multiminerals and Twinlabs magnesium, but even tho' coral calcium is primarily calcium carbonate, it also contains a ton of trace minerals! Trace minerals are something that a LOT of people lack. I use "Natures way" trace minerals and the contents read like the periodic table. :-) > > > What many people do not realize tho' is that calcium, when taken by > > itself, rarely does any good.

As well, it makes more sense to have an allergen free household (he is 2) cause he can get to stuff and we don't want any accidental exposures. He can't have tomatoes...I'm not going to sit in front of him and have a big bowl of pasta with marninara sauce. He doesn't yet get the "Dada can have, but you can't..." and I think it's cruel anyway. -- 'Tis Herself |

What's the latest skinny on food allergies? When I was a kid, I was
supposed to be allergic to eggs, chocolate(!), and something else good. My sister was supposed to be allergic to cows milk, beef, and wheat! (these things always seemed to run in threes and make life as difficult as possible). BTW, for Herself, for what it's worth, goats' milk was deemed OK for my siser, although very hard to find in that time and place. I remember having one severe, throat-closing reaction to chocolate mousse, and a rash from too many summer tomatoes. I definitely remember sneaking Hershey bars with no ill effect. I *did* have a lot of "allergy attacks" as a kid -- sneezing, wheezing, etc.-- which in retrospect I feel were pollen-related 'hay fever'. Evidently, my sister and I "grew out of" these allergies, as we've definitely been omnivores since jr. high. I hear now that there's a theory allergies are related to blood type. |

I'm not familiar with Trader Joe's Multi but a quick way to check the quality of your Multi is by the Vitamin E... If it says "DL-Alpha" then it's junk... toss it in the trash... If it says "D-Alpha (notice the missing L) then you've got a quality product... DL-Alpha is synthetic Vitamin E and *NOT* what studies used when they made the claim of reduced heart disease...
