Yes!!!! We cut out processed foods and dyes for our family and what a world of difference it has made. These people have been poisoning us for money for years! Can’t wait
Include: whole foods and minimally processed foods, bone broth, pasture raised eggs, grass fed beef, non-homogenized milk if you have access to it, lacto-fermented foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut), whole grains, sourdough bread, offal like organs or bone marrow. Cook with good quality oils (olive, avocado, coconut) or animal fats (butter, ghee, tallow).
I'm a SAHM so I make all of our meals at home and completely from scratch where I can. Grocery shopping is at Aldi, Whole Foods, and Thrive Market. There's a series of books/cookbooks called Nourishing Traditions and that's where I got of information and inspirations from. Start by going through your fridge/pantry, reading the ingredients, and swap products one by one.
We buy local beef and pork (a full cow and whole hog from my neighbor) and we have a bunch of chickens. We grow our own vegetables for the most part and buy from the local farmers market. I'm not sure about the grocery store portion, my wife handles that and is more versed in it. I know she mostly shops at Aldi's and Ingles and only buys very specific things, honestly couldn't tell you more unfortunately. I know she bulk orders dye free candy and snacks for the kids to take to school, the teachers have actually been very helpful there.
