Guest guest Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 I use 1 percent milk, mix the NV in the blender, and it does great. It foams up a bit so you have to let it sit for a minute or two.  Sherry and Josh From: <shannonstilwell@...> Subject: [ ] NV in Milk Date: Saturday, June 26, 2010, 4:42 PM  Ok,so my 2 and 3 year olds have been drinking NV for over a month now. Each morning I mix it with almondmilk. Well, I ran out this morning so I used regular whole cow's milk. Well, it wouldn't mix. What I usually do is scoop it in a sippy, shake hard and it disolves great and makes a smooth " chocolate milk " . With the regular milk it clumped and wouldn't blend. Hubby said because almondmilk is more thin like water and whole milk has higher fat content. Anyway, would it disolve in better if I used a blender?

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 i found that for a drink like this, a milk frother from ikea for 1.99us works great!!! sandy ________________________________ From: <shannonstilwell@...> Sent: Sat, June 26, 2010 5:42:46 PM Subject: [ ] NV in Milk  Ok,so my 2 and 3 year olds have been drinking NV for over a month now.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2010 Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 Technically, NV is recommended for all milk alternatives but not cow's milk. Warmest wishes, Barbara , M.S., CCC-SLP www.helpmespeak.com 410-442-9791 Ask me about NutriiVeda!

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Barbara ~ can you tell me more about this? I didn't realize that ... does that mean I *shouldn't* be using cow's milk to mix my son's NV?? That's what I've been using all along .... I don't want to be doing something that will make the NV less effective, if that's the case. > > > I've found the same thing- it dissolves in water or almond milk almost > > right away, but not in cow's milk.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2010 Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Dr. Deepak Chopra told me you can mix nutriiveda with any type of milk. Barbara is correct however if you refer to the nutriiveda program guide https://zriibucket.s3.amazonaws.com/v1/flash/2/docs/NutriiVeda.pdf which as you know the product was launched more as a weight management/health all natural product to support the metabolic system for adults. In the program guide they recommend as a healthy alternative milk substitutes. That does not at all mean you can't mix nutriiveda with milk, tomato sauce, pudding, ice cream, (or whipped cream as Kate just suggested)juice, yogurt, oatmeal, water etc. You can mix NV into anything and should see results in about a day to a few days (as you did- I have your message below) The only thing that may compromise it would be mixing it into something boiling or cooking with it. And with nutriiveda unless otherwise medical necessary -you don't need any other vitamins or supplements outside of fish oils which work really well together (essential fats and essential amino acids) because other than that we don't know what may compromise it as we only have theories http://pursuitofresearch.org/science.html as to why it's " working. And clearly you learned yourself that using cow's milk didn't slow down the surges as the following was after 6 days on NV Any more updates?!! Now for some GOOD news ... our NV update! I was going to wait a little longer to post an update, but I'm just too excited not to post about this! Jack (just turned 3 yesterday) started NV last Saturday, so today was day 6. Wow. It's truly been amazing! Not in a " wow, he just started talking all of a sudden " kind of way, but there are just many subtle changes that, taken all together, have really made a difference. He's all of sudden starting to attempt more words, and just in the past 2 days or so, many of the words he does say just sound a little better. He's still making the same sorts of speech errors he always has -- like leaving off initial consonants, or ending consonants, or switching syllables up, adding a schwa at the end of his words -- but I've noticed that some of his sounds are starting to sound more clear. And in particular, some of his vowel sounds are getting better more of the time. And I can't really explain this part -- but he just somehow seems " sharper " with everything. He's always been a goofball and practical joker, but now he seems to have taken his joking to a higher level. I don't really know how to explain it. Today, we were driving in the car and passed a school bus, and Jack yelled out " BU " for " bus " (he always points out busses to us!). Well " bus " is actually one of the few CVC words I know he can say. So, in a joking way I said to him " Jack, did you forget your " s " ? " He laughed, and in true smart aleck fashion replied " Bu-sssssssssssss " , and then laughed again. We hadn't told anyone outside of our immediate family that Jack was getting " special cocoa " (that's what we told our girls ;o)). But in the past few days, my mom (who's been watching my kids for me a lot this week) keeps calling me in amazement to report things that Jack's saying, or how clear his words are, etc. My daughter finally spoke up and told my mom that Jack's getting special cocoa to help him talk. ) Regarding my update, after the first day, I was having a hard time committing to taking it as a meal replacement (too many special meals this week!), so I put it on hold until I can really do it. Besides, I wanted to make sure I've got enough of it on hand for Jack before my next shipment arrives! ===== Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
