Fix It With Food

Mishy and Jasmine are sisters in law, both with young kids who buzzed in and out of the bedroom where we sat with the Mums chatting and drinking chai tea.

We got to talking about how they keep their families healthy. The answer was so obvious to them, and they seemed a little puzzled that we didn’t already know; “We do it with food. There’s a food for everything.”

“But what if you have a hyperactive kid?” we asked, (thinking of all the ADD kids in America on prescriptions medicine).

“Give them raw green apples in the morning for hyper kids. And walnuts are good for the brain – you see it in their shape – give them crushed walnuts for concentration.”

While many other mums would head for the doctor of the chemist, Indian mums head for the kitchen.

Opportunity: Give her the natural solution.
