Here is a scary and compelling example of what you may be feeding your baby:
| YourVitamix Machine | Whole Food | Healthy Homemade Vitamix Baby Food | 1/3 Whole Food | Food Starch, Thickeners, Salt & Sugar | Commercial Baby Food |
| Healthy homemade Vitamix baby food costs $.44 / lb. | Less nutritious packaged baby food costs $2.82 / lb. |
Commercial baby food costs — ready for this? SEVEN times as much.
Yes, you're reading right: SEVEN times as much. | |
A healthy baby is every parent's priority. Prenatal care is the first step to assuring your baby a lifetime of good health. You carefully watched everything you ate and drank when you were pregnant. But are you watching what's in the baby food you're buying?
The sad truth is that leading manufacturers of meals for babies six months and older often replace real food with water and thickening agents. Many leading brands of second- and third-stage dinners may contain as little as 28%* of the whole food nutrition found in first-stage foods.
Even sadder is that with many commercial baby food products you are paying 7 times more for chemicals, starchy fillers, sugar and sodium that are anything but nutritious!
