Think about it: the human race has made it this far largely on whole food. Only in recent decades have we begun overthinking and over-processing our foods, which has led to chronic dieting, chronic disease, disordered eating, body distrust, and epidemic confusion about the best way to feed ourselves and families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEating is an innate skill that has been overcomplicated by marketing schemes and a dieting culture.

When babies show signs of readiness for solid foods, they can eat almost everything the family eats and become healthy, happy eaters in the process. By honouring self-regulation (also an innate skill) and focusing on a whole food foundation, we can foster healthier children, parents, and families.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou don't have to cook another entire meal to feed just baby, nor blend everything you eat into a puree to support healthy growth in an infant. With a little patience, presence, and skill, you can transform nearly any family meal into a baby-friendly food. Who knew a little planning could have the whole family eating together, and better?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAside from the United States, most countries are accepting of babies starting on solids with the foods of the family.
