Ok for kids?

I have my kids on about a 50% raw diet with me. They love the smoothie’s and whatnot. However My SAD parents don’t agree, and I feel like they are kinda trying to scare me a bit. They mean no harm… they just dont understand my reasons for going raw. My question is… Has anyone done this before with there children and is it ok?

it cracks me up how people are always concerned about people not getting enough nutrients from raw food, when really, we should be concerned about them not getting enough nutrients from FRIED foods. my boss actually just found out about my diet and came into my office, concerned.

but anyway, i think 50% raw is totally normal for kids… i probably ate that much raw whe i was a kid and my family had no idea about raw food… fruits, vegetables and nut butters were just a natural part of our diet. your kids will be fine.
