Want to be able to trust your kids around a full cookie jar? Want
your kids to say "no" to McDonald's and actually choose to eat
something else? Want your kid to be able to eat whatever they want
without ever worrying about their weight? With 'Food Ninjas: How to
Raise Your Kids to be Lean, Mean, Eating Machines, ' this reality
is just a small step away. In a world full of increasing paranoia
about the food we eat and health-obsessed parents imposing more and
more bizarre dietary restrictions on their children, 'Food Ninjas'
provides the swift kick in the pants that many health fanatical
parents need. 'Food Ninjas' is THE roadmap for raising your
children to be the "lucky" ones who can eat whatever they want,
whenever they want, and be lean and healthy as a result. Think your
kid needs to eat a bunch of vegetables? Think your kid will become
a raging diabetic if he is allowed to consume as much cake, candy,
and Coca Cola as he desires? Think your kid will be healthier if
you raise her only on "whole foods?" Wrong, wrong, wrong. All
creatures, humans included, come hardwired with powerful regulatory
mechanisms with million-year track records of success. Children
come programmed with all the instincts they could ever need to
manage their body fat levels, energy levels, fluid intake, and much
more-even while eating a modern diet. As a parent, the biggest
mistake you can make is to INTERFERE. 'Food Ninjas' is about
stepping out of the way and allowing a child to develop a healthy
relationship with food, an optimal metabolic rate, and eat and
drink based on internal, instinctual cues. Those internal cues can
be trusted. Psychological interference about when, what, and how
much to eat is what drowns out instinct and starts a lifelong
neurotic tug of war between what we want to eat, and what we think
we should eat. After reading 'Food Ninjas, ' you will no longer
have to control, bribe, struggle, or fight your children to eat
this or eat that. You can relax. They can relax. You can stop
trying to force them to swallow that green juice and cod liver oil,
and you can stop having to listen to them whine and beg to eat junk
food despite your best efforts to get them excited about Brussels
sprouts and grass-fed beef. And the whole family can put all that
wasted time and effort towards something a lot more fulfilling.
'Food Ninjas' is not another idealistic book filled with tricks to
make kids eat vegetables and delusional statements about how carrot
sticks and hummus can be just as enjoyable as burgers and fries if
you mold the hummus to look like a skateboard park or a Barbie
bathtub. It is the answer for how kids and adults alike can eat in
the most casual, intuitive, and carefree way as possible with
excellent health to go along with it.
