Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 My daughter is doing the intro but she will not do broth. Is there anything wrong with getting a lot of vegetables (carrots, celery, spinach, chard, kale, etc.), boiling them for 4 hours and then just having her drink the water they were boiled in? Thanks, Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, but how is that different from broth? You could puree the vegetables using the cooking broth as well. But I wouldn't use chard and kale right away for puree - they are more advanced.

Guest guest Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 i don't know how young your daughter is, but i can get my girls to take something like that in a medicine syringe (like the ones you get a target with kid medicine). it doesn't get much in but it is better than nothing and i dont' think they taste as much b/c they suck it down. they think it is fun. it works for my kids ages 1-5. or you could get a crazy straw or something fun and have a contest to trick her into drinking it..... if she is older, that might not work. good luck! p To: BTVC-SCD From: alcibiades@...Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 14:01:08 -0400Subject: Re: Broth question > My daughter is doing the intro but she will not do broth.
