I see some people in the comments attributing the health of their child to what they ate during pregnancy. If your child is not the picture of health, PLEASE DON'T beat yourself up. I have many chronic illnesses and it's NO ONE'S FAULT, especially not my wonderful mother's. Have a wonderful weekend everybody, and have safe delivery, Katherine!
There is always a reason as to why someone develops an illness, and the cause can always be traced back to someone's actions. The important part is doing the things that make a human being healthy. If someone's child isn't healthy, the parents are at fault. By the way, the information in this video is absolutely fantastic for getting rid of chronic illnesses.
I found so many of these nourishing traditions when I was pregnant with my son. I am so glad that you were bringing this to light because it is so important. My son is calm, happy and always growing perfectly with a great immune system. I owe it all to eating properly eating . He is now 21 years old. We as women have to support and share these great and important gifts. Thank you so much.
I've been vegetarian since I was 14. However, when pregnant with my daughter, I craved liver and ate it every day. The morning after delivery, I couldn't stand it again. It's so important to listen to our bodies. Had I not listened to my cravings, my daughter might not be as healthy.
I still remember my Bedouin beautiful grandmother (from North Africa)and her tray of stuffed dates with raw butter, she made herself, and some almond in the middle, sometimes. She served them to my grandfather with their late afternoon coffee under the fig tree, sitting on the ground on cushions stuffed with sheep wool. I also remember her serving her daughter-in-law a bowl of cooked fenugreek seeds with raw honey for post partum nourishment..she would soak the fenugreek seeds in water overnight, next day rinse them and cook them, when cool add raw running honey, sometimes she would sprinkle some almonds too. As a kid a loved them and now I still make them when I feel down. As for fasting, I cringe when I hear about pregnant or breastfeeding women fasting, it's so dangerous. As a Muslim fasting a whole month of Ramadan, pregnant and breastfeeding women are not permitted to fast, as it's dangerous to their health and their babies. People need to search thing well before starting on anything they haven't done before. Well done young lady and all the best to you and your baby🥰💕
What a stunning and precious memory! Lovely family traditions and it seems so caring and focused on the whole health instead of how many of us are convinced we're doing better by starving ourselves. Best wishes to you and thanks for sharing
@@dear_totheheart thank you for your kind words..yep people used to live together and look after each other, now it's only me me me.. as for the diet industry it's crazy..the problem is people are eating highly processed foods and then start these crazy diets...we need to eat all but local, in season and as organic as possible because I know not everyone can afford it. I'm lucky as I grow most of my food or forage or barter with local small organic farms for raw milk, cheeses and meats...I have my own chickens and ferment almost everything...I moved out of London UK over ten years ago to here in the mountains in central Europe, I have a small old stone house but nothing else, no car, no washing machine or central heating or hot running water, just my trusty wood stove, no TV or fridge or computer, just this old mobile phone with a limited access to internet..no job too..but honestly I am the healthiest and happiest I've ever been...I use ash to wash dishes, clothes, I make my soap, vinegars, candles,etc...and as I remember my beautiful grandmother, I try to apply what she did and how she lived... Love and peace to you all. 🥰💕
The fact you mentioned Weston A. Price is a clear indication you're eating healthy. My baby is 36 years old so that tells my age. I'm familiar with Price because my son and his wife followed his recommendation for their children. I've been eating the same way now I'm carnivore so yes you're right about fats and protein. Congratulations on your pregnancy....take care of yourself and wonderful content.
Fabulous video! I followed Brewer to a T with my second pregnancy, and it was so much healthier than my first! Helped me prevent preeclampsia! Keep eating!
Love the way you eat, and you've given me some ideas! ❤ I've also been leaning into animal-based foods lately, to help me recover from issues caused by 19 years of plant- based eating, and Nourishing Traditions is currently high on my To Read list. Good health to you & your family!
I'm happy that you talked about weight gain in pregnancy. I gained 65 pounds each time I was pregnant. My babies were 9&1/2 pounds and 9 pounds 14 ounces. Within days I wore my prepregnancy jeans. My babies, my bones, and the placentas required that extra weight.
From my research Pregnancy weight gain is genetics & blood type dependent, I am rhesus negative and can gain 1/3 of my body weight in pregnancy, I also think when a woman and baby have different blood types, different dietary requirements, cravings and weight gain occurs I gained way less with my B+ girl as I am B-, gained way more with my O+ girl and with my third I think I won’t gain as much as he’s I think my type or rhesus negative too, but that’s for science of the future to affirm. Definitely NOT calories in or out, nothing about calories when kids are of different origins…
I am curious what you think is an appropriate amount of time to be trying these food changes, to see the positive effects that this way of eating produces. I do personally think that some of the reasons for for pushing for suppliments here in America has also been because of lack of nutrition in in our foods in general, cooked and raw. It has been found that our foods being consistently bred to produce bigger have as a result lost nutrition along the way. I am encouraged by seeing someone do something like this successfully, it's something I strive for my family as well, and always good to get some extra tips as well. My family actually is trying to take that extra step and try to grow our own food, and help others out there to be able to do so as well. I really appreciate the information you put in your videos.😊
You are so humble,beautiful personality radiates,you and your family are beautiful,pray you have a safe delivery, I love your videos,and the way you eat,thank you,may God continue to ricly bless you for how you inspire all of us.
Raw milk is great. I grew up drinking raw milk. We had friends with dairy cows, so my parents bought our milk directly from our friends. And then my pastor got a couple of milk cows and we bought our milk from him. He believed raw milk was healthiest, so the whole church was buying raw milk.
Raw milk may be better than processed milk but it still has tons of hormones that disrupt the endocrine system and thyroid. Its not actually a healthy food since despite the benefits it still harms the body terribly, its directly connected to cancer growth and causes inflammation :( not something I would ever recommend in good conscience. It also causes acidity in the body which makes the body have to pull calcium from the bones to adjust the ph. Pretty harmful and here we were thinking it was good for calcium. Calcium in milk is not bioavailable and causes a decrease in calcium in the body. If its fermented its better.
@@EloraLiveZ As an adult, I do not consume dairy. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I avoid dairy and gluten, and eat almost exclusively plant foods. I do allow for a little meat every once in awhile. Because of being hypothyroid, my estrogen became dominant. Dairy is loaded with estrogen. I cannot handle having dairy at all anymore. It does several really bad things to me. Most people I know enjoy it on the regular though.
I have always had a diet high in dairy, even for decades as a mostly vegetarian, & even when trending vegan several days a week, the other days I had dairy, but just conventional pasteurised dairy. As a result, I have higher than average bone density for my age, bar for one area of my spine, which is still in the normal range. However, 18 months of drinking raw milk healed my long standing night blindness. For people & populations who retain lactase capacity, dairy truly is a super food. Taking lactase enzyme, drinking a2 rather than A1 casein milk, & choosing fermented &/or raw if safely available, makes these benefits available to the broader population. Traditionally vegetarian populations have better adult & child health outcomes associated with higher animal derived food content, in traditional diets this means typically raw dairy, & sometimes including eggs.
Katherine, I know you don’t know me, but I just adore you. I followed the Brewer regime during my pregnancies as well. I even spoke to him on the phone once. He was so dear. You have helped me so much with my hair and I just love your mothering and homemaking style. I don’t like the word die either. I use the French “régime.”
Getting your vitamin D level checked is very important especially in a Northern climate. Vitamin D3 along with K2 is very important to help keep levels between 50- 80. Research optimal levels.
You are just a glowing gorgeous mama. Love all the emphasis on dietary fat, about 10 years ago I realized that healthy fat sources are absolutly the cornerstone of a healthy diet, and it's hard to get too much! (This was a major 180 for me, my parents were of the "low-fat diet" generation so that's what I was raised on.) Thanks for the video!
I found your channel looking for natural hair loss remedies and natural hair care. I am learning so much from your content. Thank you for the fantastic information! I'm looking forward to trying several of your suggestions.
Katherine, I believe this might be the absolute best pregnancy related nutrition video on RUclips. Absolutely wonderful job. By finding Weston A. Price, you found the man who wrote the greatest piece of literature regarding nutrition in the history of mankind. Thank you for spreading the message. By the way, if you want the trifecta of nutrition, research the work of Aajonus Vonderplanitz, as well as Pottengers cat experiment.
I loved this video! It’s so interesting how similar our ways of eating and health journeys are! It was nice hearing it from your perspective and how you approach it all. Love nourishing traditions and prometabolic principles! I have definitely been feeling that since nourishing myself properly my body truly does demands more food and it’s crazy that before I would just deprive myself without even realizing it! So excited for you that your baby will be here so soon! 💕
Thank you for such an informative and kind video. As you stated, balance is very important and your diet sounds very healthy. If more people would listen to their own body for food needs, it would benefit their health. Society has put bad labels on healthy food in the name of greed. Margarine was never healthy as it is a trans fat, yet in the mid-1900's it was suppose to be so much better than butter. Food facts change depending on who benefits from any study done by a funded company. I have a nutrition degree and your video was an absolute delight to watch. I just found your RUclips channel a couple of weeks ago, and I am catching up with older video's while looking forward to your next post. Thank you again. Your hair is gorgeous.
i absolutely appreciate this video. I'm pregnant with my 2nd baby and have started to switch mindsets on prenatals/supplements in general. The supplements I've taken this time around are beef liver from steers my in laws raised, and Liqui-dulce . I really want to focus on higher quality of foods we already eat, and increasing our greens and such. We definitely eat pretty close to our foods natural form, but, it is so easy to go through cycles of eating way too many carbs and not enough nutrient dense foods. it is omething we have felt conviction about, and I guess just trust God to provide ways to source /buy these foods. God bless ❤
Thank you so much for this video. I didn't know but I feel like I needed that information. Would you mind sharing some sources about the folate vs folic acid dilemma? I'd love to learn more about that. Thank you in advance❤ And good luck for you and your baby. Sending you both lots of love ❤❤
At first l thought ,ah probably not going to be a good video (she’s reaching to help the algorithm keep going)but wow you left me wanting to hear more about your diet especially the powders and yea.and now l have two more book on my wish list .really nice video.
I haven’t grown a new human in almost 40 years. You have just described what is still the normal way of eating in our home. Minus the glutenous foods due to celiac. I started following your channel a few weeks ago because of my thinning hair. My hair is already looking better thanks to daily scalp massage and my new boar bristle brush. I am grateful for all the hair care tips you have shared. Have you tried Medjoul dates stuffed with goat cheese? Or maybe half a walnut or pecan. In my part of Ontario we can get Saugeen Country Kefir and yoghourt. The dairy is actually down the road from me but I buy their products at Foodland. Their kefir is, by far, the best I’ve ever eaten. Even better than my own homemade. My homemade sauerkraut, however, IS the best I’ve ever eaten and we eat our own fermented veggies daily. I have friends on a waitlist for their turn to score a jar. I have successfully taught 3 generations of my family how to ferment foods including my granddaughter when she was only 3 years old. Now 8, she has since expanded her repertoire to include peppers and ginger carrot sticks. I’m so proud of her.
I love Kerala style white rice! Because the way they cook it reduces the starches and make it lighter, they cook it with salt and a lot of water then strain it and eat it with curry. You should try it
Great video! Congratulations for your pregnancy and your way of eating! Weston A. Prices and the Weston A. Price Foundation are a wonderful source of information that everybody should learn about. I'm originally from Quebec (but living in the US for 27 years) and it warms my heart that you are eating some pâté à la viande. So many good food memories there. Thanks for your wonderful work, especially on hair growth (I'm post menopause and my hair need all the help I can give them). You are beautiful! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing all this ❤❤ can you please talk about scalp irritation or sensitivity ? Can changing hair routine can make thin hair get stronger? Sometimes getting cold lately causes scalp irritation never happened before.
This is all so fascinating and seems so straightforward and common sense. Congratulations on your pregnancy and family and thank you for sharing your wisdom and insights from your studies with us! I have a question, I had been consuming far more milk, eggs, cheese, etc. and haven't been eating really any processed foods and yet the last time I went to the doctors they said my cholesterol was very high and seemed to infer that it was on track to become an issue. I was curious your thoughts on this as milk, cheese, and eggs all have high fat and cholesterol but they're supposed to be so much better for you...for instance they mentioned avoiding whole milk and drinking low fat/skim and only getting low fat yogurt and other dairy...which doesn't seem to be true given all the nutrients of whole dairy. I'm so torn and confused with modern medicine and traditional recommendations and what's true. Any suggestions from you or others about the cholesterol aspect would be great to hear
I can't post the link but you can read "Egg consumption and health outcomes: a global evidence mapping based on an overview of systematic reviews Xianzhuo Zhang, Meng Lv, [...], and Yaolong Chen." You can probably find the study just by googling the portion in quotations. I don't know about the dairy, but one study showed that "the risk of cardiovascular disease was not higher among people consuming one egg per day than among those not consuming any eggs. Studies by Shin and Tran have shown that egg consumption may increase the incidence of cardiovascular disease in diabetics."
You need fats. Women especially need them. Your brain is made of cholesterol, it helps regulate hormones, modern medicine is WAY off about cholesterol. Look into carnivore MD he is a primary care physician and his videos àre very comprehensive. He touches on this subject a bit.
Add your favorite Nuts in the Dates! wow…you will love them. Brazilian🌰nuts, pine nuts, pecan, walnuts etc. You have a Beautiful family, beautiful hair, and a beautiful woman. Congratulations on your pregnancy what wonderful Blessings upon you!
Thankyou for all of your beautiful wisdom! I'm 8 weeks pregnant with my 5th bub and following basically the exact same diet. The one thing I'm wondering is if you still take MSM throughout your pregnancies?
Hi everyone, as a parent I always want to make life easy for other parent and my way of making pizza will make you enjoy making it regardless of the size of your family.
Looking forward to the herbal infusion recipe! Going to need the vanilla soufflé and custard recipes as well. 😂 Thank you for sharing your healthy habits with us! “that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”” Romans 10:9-10, 13
Horse voice is either low vitamin b1 or fluoride poisoning. Your water filter may not be good enough to remove fluoride. I see a massive improvement in my speaking voice and my singing voice when taking b1, it's crazy actually.
You mentioned breastfeeding your other kids, could you please make a video on what you did to successfully breastfeeding. I had to supplement with my older son, and I am currently pregnant (29 weeks), I would love to just breastfeed and no need to supplement. Thank you so much for this video!!
Been loving all your videos. And I feel the same about supplements, and for my Omega‘s, as well as to help my “detoxifying organs” (liver and kidneys), I’ve been taking and loving, “ancestral supplements” brand. I take their tallow, kidney, and liver supplements daily.
So youve been pregnant five times back to back? Is that then the reason why your hair grew so long? It is more common to experience hair growth from pregnancy than hair loss. the hair loss usually happens after the birth (not always but typically) but youve been pregnant that many times back to back so how can you say in so many of your videos that your hair growth is due to all of these natural treatments and products?
I have seen that Chinese post pardum diet done with their traditional belly binding. Are you considering that practice also? I think there may be a lot of good things that come from supporting the body while it heals from heavy labour and the trauma of the sudden change.
Omg, I love your dresses! Would you please talk about your clothes and where do you find them sometime? Do you make them? Of course, I love your content about hair care as well (It's been very good to me).
Very informative, thank you. I have heard from a few people about the Nourishing Traditions book - so I finally took the plunge and bought it. :-) Are you still taking MSM? You look radiant - so your diet and lifestyle clearly suit you. All the best to you - may your birthing be smooth and may you and your baby be well!
I know this is an old video but I hope ypu see the comment. Im from Ontario and once looked into raw milk. Look into cow share Canada. Im not sure if they are still operating but worth the research.
Omg, I’ve been taking the supplements you recommended in the water Chorella Amla and maca and I can’t stomach it every day >.< I’ve been drinking ever other day just because I can’t deal with the taste. How do you drink it every day or do you do anything to make it taste better ? Lol 1st trimester and not taking prenatals ❤ Thanks for the recommendations tho
My gran (10 kids) did not take pre-natals (this was war era Belgium, Europe, it just did not exist). She lost a couple teeth due to the babies taking her calcium supply. My mom? Same thing, in the 1970s, pre-natals still did not exist here. She lost 3 teeth due to being pregnant with me. I mean... IMHO it's fine, but it's still a risk, even though you eat the best you can eat. My mom was super healthy!
Ooh I have a medjool date idea for you! I’m totally addicted to putting pecan halves in the middle of a date. It’s like the most amazing decadent-seeming dessert ever! 😋 I usually end up squishing more pecans inside before I’ve finished the date Lol. Delicious!!!
Raw milk may be better than processed milk but it still has tons of hormones that disrupt the endocrine system and thyroid. Its not actually a healthy food since despite the benefits it still harms the body terribly, its directly connected to cancer growth and causes inflammation :( not something I would ever recommend in good conscience. It also causes acidity in the body which makes the body have to pull calcium from the bones to adjust the ph. Pretty harmful and here we were thinking it was good for calcium. Calcium in milk is not bioavailable and causes a decrease in calcium in the body. If its fermented its better. - Also, a lot of people sensitive to histamines cannot consume bone broth because it is a high histamine food and gives them stomachache and diarrhea :( I wont even get started on grains (which all have gluten) and are toxic to all healthy humans. Fermenting them (sourdough) doesnt touch the gluten. I used to be an avid baker. Rice has the least amount of gluten and once you detox you cant go back. Grains are directly linked to aggression in people, poor impulse control especially in children, heavy on the mental issues, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, cancer growth, destroys the intestinal lining, tricks the immune system to attack the thyroid, auto immune diseases, what people call “effects of aging”…. And if you read in Genesis you see that grains were actually given to Adam as a punishment, a curse, for sinning after the snake and Eve were also cursed. Grains are complete poison. For something to be considered “food” according to the dictionary, it has to be nutritious AND have the ability to sustain life and growth, not the opposite. Spirulina is chlorella on steroids! Hehe - I am 32wks and in medical school specializing in naturopathic medicine. Paleo is a really good way to live, very nutrient rich anti inflammatory way to eat. It helps and give your body what it needs to heal itself and detox effectively.
I have had to get biometric screenings with work every year and when I followed the practices of Weston A Price and Nourishing Traditions my LDLs have been low and my HDLs are high. That is just me though.
@@thedoodle2009 I just can’t imagine with eating 4 eggs a day, let alone all the other high amounts of saturated fat and animal products she consumes, her cholesterol just can’t be low at all. My LDL is very low and my HDL is higher than my LDL so I am good but I eat a totally different diet than she does. It just worries me, I don’t want others to blatantly take her word when she says saturated fats in high amounts are healthy (which they are not) and a high cholesterol is NOT helpful during pregnancy (It can actually lead to tons of problems). And a pre-natal is advised even if you are ‘sure’ you’re getting everything you need from your diet. I know this will be her fifth fucking kid and she may not have had many problems, but others may not be so lucky. I don’t care how people eat really, I just am worried about the baby, obviously.
I was worried listening to this.This was me,my diet for most of my life,as it was my family's. I never expected to be widowed at a young age nor to be diagnosed with cardiovascular disease.Directly from our diets.We loved our fats and sugar.😢I never realized the damage I was causing.
@@joyce7310 I am so sorry to hear that Joyce! I too have lost loved ones due to such a diet. It’s awful and it made me feel betrayed. But it also gave me the motivation to change things around (diet and exercise related) and help my alive family members as-well as myself. I hope you can still enjoy your life, and hopefully you don’t suffer too greatly, Joyce. Best wishes to you.
@@bionikpaws3149 I eat like this and my overall health is waaaaay better than when I was eating a low fat, mostly plant based diet. I sometimes eat 6 eggs a day or more lol. And prenatals are something that North Americans are obsessed with, but it's not really a big thing in the rest of the world. It's all about marketing. Working on the health field, I was shocked when I moved to the US and saw how obsessed people are with prenatals, but then they barely bother trying to get those nutrients from food... especially bc a bunch of the nutrients found in those multivitamins are barely absorbed, or in forms that are less than ideal, and they're not that hard to come by from dietary sources. Also incredibly expensive for what they offer. It shocks me when I see people worried about a woman eating whole, nutrient dense foods that have been consumed forever, but then advise taking multivitamins lol upside down world.
The amount of misinformation here is shocking. I'd rather believe a medical doctor than someone on RUclips, a thousand times over and I advise other people to do the same. There's a reason pregnant women are told to avoid eating liver and are advised prenatal vitamins - folic acid is extremely important and not just that, it's almost impossible to meet the daily requirement of iron through diet alone, during pregnancy. Also, salt increases retention of water causing edema, when pregnant women are already prone to developing swollen limbs. Ugh, I can't anymore with this video.
Im seeing a trend with people who "suddenly" got long hair they all got pregnant. It makes me lose hope in my own long hair journey cause none of their "hair tips" they preach are working
Thanks so much!!🥺🥲I read Dr. Price’s book 8 years ago when I was breastfeeding my first and got my first ever cavity😔 i found some raw milk (sold for pets) in Mississippi and my tooth pain went away, but then the cow dried up before I could get more and it took another year or 2 of searching to find another farmer. I had to get that cavity filled. Do you have advice for someone allergic to meat? I found i have only been able to eat sardines and cod liver oil. I went on the autoimmune protocol diet for my chronic virus (fruit, veg, meat) and felt fantastic, but tried organic grass fed beef liver and had a horrible reaction. If you’re debating trying liver for the first time and don’t have a chronic virus, i wouldn’t be worried. I think because i was so sensitive already, whatever toxins the cow’s liver had filtered out to protect the cow really did not agree with me. I tried reintroducing chicken (extremely allergic) and salmon (i tolerated a few bites) but it’s been difficult to reintroduce sourdough bread, eggs, or grass-fed dairy yogurt/cheese etc because i stay busy and can’t afford to be wiped out from a bad food reaction. I find that i have to push all my meals into the middle of the day and eat light snacks (which are also difficult to find in MS because of seed oils in everything here). I found Misfits Market which ships organic produce and some healthier grain-free snacks and foods to your door. And a town 20 min from me has a health food store with other things i can have when I’m waiting on a Misfits box. But any tips for “unintentional vegans” would be so appreciated! I did used to be able to eat a Dr Price diet several years ago but right now I’m healing and so sensitive and busy/committed i don’t have time to experiment with and test out foods that might make me have to miss work. It’s difficult but the Lord Jesus has guided me this far and brought me to you and to others and has answered my prayers for help through this by having these people’s videos pop up and having friends share their research and resources❤ It’s been “slower” than the mainstream approach, but that’s actually good! Part of the reason I’m so sick is because of adverse reactions to pharma and otcs. So to me, and from my observations of others’ health problems, mainstream mindset=fast but ineffective, and traditional mindset=slow but effective

I see some people in the comments attributing the health of their child to what they ate during pregnancy. If your child is not the picture of health, PLEASE DON'T beat yourself up. I have many chronic illnesses and it's NO ONE'S FAULT, especially not my wonderful mother's.
Have a wonderful weekend everybody, and have safe delivery, Katherine!
There is always a reason as to why someone develops an illness, and the cause can always be traced back to someone's actions. The important part is doing the things that make a human being healthy. If someone's child isn't healthy, the parents are at fault. By the way, the information in this video is absolutely fantastic for getting rid of chronic illnesses.
Thank you for this beautiful compassionate comment, it is so true.
I found so many of these nourishing traditions when I was pregnant with my son. I am so glad that you were bringing this to light because it is so important. My son is calm, happy and always growing perfectly with a great immune system. I owe it all to eating properly eating . He is now 21 years old. We as women have to support and share these great and important gifts. Thank you so much.
I agree. As we become experienced with life we should be passing our wisdom on. Like the elders of days of old did.
I've been vegetarian since I was 14. However, when pregnant with my daughter, I craved liver and ate it every day. The morning after delivery, I couldn't stand it again. It's so important to listen to our bodies. Had I not listened to my cravings, my daughter might not be as healthy.
I was also a long-time vegetarian and changed based on cravings during pregnancy, and I think it helped me and probably my babies
I craved pine-sol. Glad I didnt listen to my cravings.
Most of the time when you're craving something non edible, you're deficient in something@@sarahpauline4904
I still remember my Bedouin beautiful grandmother (from North Africa)and her tray of stuffed dates with raw butter, she made herself, and some almond in the middle, sometimes. She served them to my grandfather with their late afternoon coffee under the fig tree, sitting on the ground on cushions stuffed with sheep wool. I also remember her serving her daughter-in-law a bowl of cooked fenugreek seeds with raw honey for post partum nourishment..she would soak the fenugreek seeds in water overnight, next day rinse them and cook them, when cool add raw running honey, sometimes she would sprinkle some almonds too. As a kid a loved them and now I still make them when I feel down. As for fasting, I cringe when I hear about pregnant or breastfeeding women fasting, it's so dangerous. As a Muslim fasting a whole month of Ramadan, pregnant and breastfeeding women are not permitted to fast, as it's dangerous to their health and their babies. People need to search thing well before starting on anything they haven't done before. Well done young lady and all the best to you and your baby🥰💕
What a stunning and precious memory!
Lovely family traditions and it seems so caring and focused on the whole health instead of how many of us are convinced we're doing better by starving ourselves. Best wishes to you and thanks for sharing

@@thelandofmintWow, sounds amazing to have such a beautiful, simple and content lifestyle 😊
Ppwlw not need searching as that's dangerous instead they should seek naturopath or herbalist😊
Wow, what beautiful memories, thank you for sharing!
Great info! I'm 9 weeks pregnant with my third and am inspired to add some of these nutrient dense foods to my diet. Thank you!

I do personally think that some of the reasons for for pushing for suppliments here in America has also been because of lack of nutrition in in our foods in general, cooked and raw. It has been found that our foods being consistently bred to produce bigger have as a result lost nutrition along the way.
I am encouraged by seeing someone do something like this successfully, it's something I strive for my family as well, and always good to get some extra tips as well. My family actually is trying to take that extra step and try to grow our own food, and help others out there to be able to do so as well. I really appreciate the information you put in your videos.😊
You are so humble,beautiful personality radiates,you and your family are beautiful,pray you have a safe delivery, I love your videos,and the way you eat,thank you,may God continue to ricly bless you for how you inspire all of us.
Raw milk is great. I grew up drinking raw milk. We had friends with dairy cows, so my parents bought our milk directly from our friends. And then my pastor got a couple of milk cows and we bought our milk from him. He believed raw milk was healthiest, so the whole church was buying raw milk.
Raw milk may be better than processed milk but it still has tons of hormones that disrupt the endocrine system and thyroid.
Its not actually a healthy food since despite the benefits it still harms the body terribly, its directly connected to cancer growth and causes inflammation :( not something I would ever recommend in good conscience.
It also causes acidity in the body which makes the body have to pull calcium from the bones to adjust the ph. Pretty harmful and here we were thinking it was good for calcium.
Calcium in milk is not bioavailable and causes a decrease in calcium in the body.
If its fermented its better.
@@EloraLiveZ As an adult, I do not consume dairy. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. I avoid dairy and gluten, and eat almost exclusively plant foods. I do allow for a little meat every once in awhile. Because of being hypothyroid, my estrogen became dominant. Dairy is loaded with estrogen. I cannot handle having dairy at all anymore. It does several really bad things to me. Most people I know enjoy it on the regular though.
I have always had a diet high in dairy, even for decades as a mostly vegetarian, & even when trending vegan several days a week, the other days I had dairy, but just conventional pasteurised dairy. As a result, I have higher than average bone density for my age, bar for one area of my spine, which is still in the normal range. However, 18 months of drinking raw milk healed my long standing night blindness. For people & populations who retain lactase capacity, dairy truly is a super food. Taking lactase enzyme, drinking a2 rather than A1 casein milk, & choosing fermented &/or raw if safely available, makes these benefits available to the broader population. Traditionally vegetarian populations have better adult & child health outcomes associated with higher animal derived food content, in traditional diets this means typically raw dairy, & sometimes including eggs.
Katherine, I know you don’t know me, but I just adore you. I followed the Brewer regime during my pregnancies as well. I even spoke to him on the phone once. He was so dear. You have helped me so much with my hair and I just love your mothering and homemaking style. I don’t like the word die either. I use the French “régime.”
Getting your vitamin D level checked is very important especially in a Northern climate. Vitamin D3 along with K2 is very important to help keep levels between 50- 80. Research optimal levels.
You are just a glowing gorgeous mama. Love all the emphasis on dietary fat, about 10 years ago I realized that healthy fat sources are absolutly the cornerstone of a healthy diet, and it's hard to get too much! (This was a major 180 for me, my parents were of the "low-fat diet" generation so that's what I was raised on.) Thanks for the video!
My grandparents had a farm I grew up drinking raw milk. I never got sick until I started drinking milk from the store.
I'm looking forward to the tea.
You are a very wise and very sincere girl💖I am happy that I found you!
I love that this focuses not just on your physical health, but emotional health (such as the vanilla souffle being your go-to comfort food).
I found your channel looking for natural hair loss remedies and natural hair care. I am learning so much from your content. Thank you for the fantastic information! I'm looking forward to trying several of your suggestions.
As a 19yro I've been eating VERY healthy for a solid year or two.
Good video 👍
Omg didn’t realize you were so far along already! I’m currently 40 weeks and 5 days pregnant with a baby girl. She’s taking her time apparently lol!
Congrats!!!
Katherine, I believe this might be the absolute best pregnancy related nutrition video on RUclips. Absolutely wonderful job. By finding Weston A. Price, you found the man who wrote the greatest piece of literature regarding nutrition in the history of mankind. Thank you for spreading the message. By the way, if you want the trifecta of nutrition, research the work of Aajonus Vonderplanitz, as well as Pottengers cat experiment.
I loved this video! It’s so interesting how similar our ways of eating and health journeys are! It was nice hearing it from your perspective and how you approach it all. Love nourishing traditions and prometabolic principles! I have definitely been feeling that since nourishing myself properly my body truly does demands more food and it’s crazy that before I would just deprive myself without even realizing it! So excited for you that your baby will be here so soon! 💕
Thank you for such an informative and kind video. As you stated, balance is very important and your diet sounds very healthy. If more people would listen to their own body for food needs, it would benefit their health. Society has put bad labels on healthy food in the name of greed. Margarine was never healthy as it is a trans fat, yet in the mid-1900's it was suppose to be so much better than butter. Food facts change depending on who benefits from any study done by a funded company. I have a nutrition degree and your video was an absolute delight to watch. I just found your RUclips channel a couple of weeks ago, and I am catching up with older video's while looking forward to your next post. Thank you again. Your hair is gorgeous.
i absolutely appreciate this video.
I'm pregnant with my 2nd baby and have started to switch mindsets on prenatals/supplements in general.
The supplements I've taken this time around are beef liver from steers my in laws raised, and Liqui-dulce . I really want to focus on higher quality of foods we already eat, and increasing our greens and such.
We definitely eat pretty close to our foods natural form, but, it is so easy to go through cycles of eating way too many carbs and not enough nutrient dense foods. it is omething we have felt conviction about, and I guess just trust God to provide ways to source /buy these foods.
God bless ❤
You are a follower of WAPF 🤗. Why am I not surprised? Blessings on your family with the new addition coming!
What is WAPF, please?
@@helenahandkart1857 Weston A. Price Foundation.
@@Victoria-ol7lh Thank you.👍
I love this thanks for sharing. I read in a sufi healing book that "butter with honey and dates removes food craving in pregnant women" ; -)
YES! Weston A. Price is amazing! I read his book! It is the best diet for me.
Thank you so much for this video. I didn't know but I feel like I needed that information. Would you mind sharing some sources about the folate vs folic acid dilemma? I'd love to learn more about that. Thank you in advance❤
And good luck for you and your baby. Sending you both lots of love ❤❤
At first l thought ,ah probably not going to be a good video (she’s reaching to help the algorithm keep going)but wow you left me wanting to hear more about your diet especially the powders and yea.and now l have two more book on my wish list .really nice video.
I haven’t grown a new human in almost 40 years. You have just described what is still the normal way of eating in our home. Minus the glutenous foods due to celiac. I started following your channel a few weeks ago because of my thinning hair. My hair is already looking better thanks to daily scalp massage and my new boar bristle brush. I am grateful for all the hair care tips you have shared.
Have you tried Medjoul dates stuffed with goat cheese? Or maybe half a walnut or pecan.
In my part of Ontario we can get Saugeen Country Kefir and yoghourt. The dairy is actually down the road from me but I buy their products at Foodland. Their kefir is, by far, the best I’ve ever eaten. Even better than my own homemade. My homemade sauerkraut, however, IS the best I’ve ever eaten and we eat our own fermented veggies daily. I have friends on a waitlist for their turn to score a jar. I have successfully taught 3 generations of my family how to ferment foods including my granddaughter when she was only 3 years old. Now 8, she has since expanded her repertoire to include peppers and ginger carrot sticks. I’m so proud of her.
You have a beautiful and blessed pregnancy❤.
I love this video! Love seeing others eating well. Love all your videos. Thank you ❤❤
Now I have to see if you've followed up on some of these details. I love your research and videos
Make a video of the vanilla soufflé!
Speaking of eating healthy. Elderberry juice is good for immune as well as upper respiratory. Also, Aboniki balm is good for muscle pain.
I love Kerala style white rice! Because the way they cook it reduces the starches and make it lighter, they cook it with salt and a lot of water then strain it and eat it with curry. You should try it
Great video! Congratulations for your pregnancy and your way of eating! Weston A. Prices and the Weston A. Price Foundation are a wonderful source of information that everybody should learn about. I'm originally from Quebec (but living in the US for 27 years) and it warms my heart that you are eating some pâté à la viande. So many good food memories there. Thanks for your wonderful work, especially on hair growth (I'm post menopause and my hair need all the help I can give them). You are beautiful! Thanks!
I’ve been following her hair care rotten for about two months now and am loving it.lm an older lady also 😊
Great timing, I am 33 weeks right now. I am also a raw milk lover. I do raw organs too.
By the way your voice so intoxicating and love all your content😍
Please consider food safety when consuming foods. Unpasturized milk has an increased risk of carrying salmonella, e. coli, etc.
Your diet sounds delicious and nutritious. I recently found a source for raw milk and can’t wait to place an order. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for sharing all this ❤❤ can you please talk about scalp irritation or sensitivity ? Can changing hair routine can make thin hair get stronger? Sometimes getting cold lately causes scalp irritation never happened before.
This is all so fascinating and seems so straightforward and common sense. Congratulations on your pregnancy and family and thank you for sharing your wisdom and insights from your studies with us!
I have a question, I had been consuming far more milk, eggs, cheese, etc. and haven't been eating really any processed foods and yet the last time I went to the doctors they said my cholesterol was very high and seemed to infer that it was on track to become an issue. I was curious your thoughts on this as milk, cheese, and eggs all have high fat and cholesterol but they're supposed to be so much better for you...for instance they mentioned avoiding whole milk and drinking low fat/skim and only getting low fat yogurt and other dairy...which doesn't seem to be true given all the nutrients of whole dairy. I'm so torn and confused with modern medicine and traditional recommendations and what's true. Any suggestions from you or others about the cholesterol aspect would be great to hear
I can't post the link but you can read "Egg consumption and health outcomes: a global evidence mapping based on an overview of systematic reviews
Xianzhuo Zhang, Meng Lv, [...], and Yaolong Chen." You can probably find the study just by googling the portion in quotations. I don't know about the dairy, but one study showed that "the risk of cardiovascular disease was not higher among people consuming one egg per day than among those not consuming any eggs. Studies by Shin and Tran have shown that egg consumption may increase the incidence of cardiovascular disease in diabetics."
You need fats. Women especially need them. Your brain is made of cholesterol, it helps regulate hormones, modern medicine is WAY off about cholesterol. Look into carnivore MD he is a primary care physician and his videos àre very comprehensive. He touches on this subject a bit.
Balanced diet
Congratulations! ❤
Loved hearing you
Add your favorite Nuts in the Dates! wow…you will love them. Brazilian🌰nuts, pine nuts, pecan, walnuts etc. You have a Beautiful family, beautiful hair, and a beautiful woman. Congratulations on your pregnancy what wonderful Blessings upon you!
What do you make of hair vitamine vegan gummies? Could they help to improve my hair growth?
Thankyou for all of your beautiful wisdom! I'm 8 weeks pregnant with my 5th bub and following basically the exact same diet. The one thing I'm wondering is if you still take MSM throughout your pregnancies?
Hi everyone, as a parent I always want to make life easy for other parent and my way of making pizza will make you enjoy making it regardless of the size of your family.
Looking forward to the herbal infusion recipe! Going to need the vanilla soufflé and custard recipes as well. 😂 Thank you for sharing your healthy habits with us!
“that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.””
Romans 10:9-10, 13
Such a good why for children to eat like this as well.
you mentioningprice made me so happy
Horse voice is either low vitamin b1 or fluoride poisoning. Your water filter may not be good enough to remove fluoride. I see a massive improvement in my speaking voice and my singing voice when taking b1, it's crazy actually.
You mentioned breastfeeding your other kids, could you please make a video on what you did to successfully breastfeeding. I had to supplement with my older son, and I am currently pregnant (29 weeks), I would love to just breastfeed and no need to supplement. Thank you so much for this video!!
Thank you for your awesome videos!! Will you talk more about tea that you spray on your hair, that you mentioned in earlier videos?
Thank you amazing share - your eyes are so clear and beautiful
Been loving all your videos. And I feel the same about supplements, and for my Omega‘s, as well as to help my “detoxifying organs” (liver and kidneys), I’ve been taking and loving, “ancestral supplements” brand. I take their tallow, kidney, and liver supplements daily.
So youve been pregnant five times back to back? Is that then the reason why your hair grew so long? It is more common to experience hair growth from pregnancy than hair loss. the hair loss usually happens after the birth (not always but typically) but youve been pregnant that many times back to back so how can you say in so many of your videos that your hair growth is due to all of these natural treatments and products?
Please make a video on weight loss after delivery
Just started to read Nourishing Traditions.l can’t put it down,it’s life changing.
Hello Katherine. Please do more hair vids. Thanx 😊
Dates with peanut butter is delicious.
Ill have to try it with butter.
I have seen that Chinese post pardum diet done with their traditional belly binding. Are you considering that practice also? I think there may be a lot of good things that come from supporting the body while it heals from heavy labour and the trauma of the sudden change.
Omg, I love your dresses! Would you please talk about your clothes and where do you find them sometime? Do you make them?
Of course, I love your content about hair care as well (It's been very good to me).
There are tutorials for making the historic clothes and shoes. She's so talented!
Very informative, thank you. I have heard from a few people about the Nourishing Traditions book - so I finally took the plunge and bought it. :-) Are you still taking MSM? You look radiant - so your diet and lifestyle clearly suit you. All the best to you - may your birthing be smooth and may you and your baby be well!
Hey Katherine, i would like to kow that did you continue having MSM during your pregnancy?
Weston Price Foundation has a good video on why we should eat white rice and not brown rice.
I wising you and your baby an easy delivery. 💙💕💚💜
I know this is an old video but I hope ypu see the comment. Im from Ontario and once looked into raw milk. Look into cow share Canada. Im not sure if they are still operating but worth the research.
Congratulations.💞love from Holland
❤
I have to be careful with fermented foods cause it can cause my IBS to flair up but I would love to hopefully add kombucha in small amounts soon.
We eat the same way, and I am pregnant too!🥰 wish we could hang out, but I live in Norway :)
I felt the same way while watching the video.. and I’m in Reno, Nevada. Awesome we can be brought together virtually across the world
Can you tell me about the tea? What kind of tea 🍵
Are all the recipes you mentioned in Nourishing Traditions?
thank you
Omg, I’ve been taking the supplements you recommended in the water Chorella Amla and maca and I can’t stomach it every day >.< I’ve been drinking ever other day just because I can’t deal with the taste. How do you drink it every day or do you do anything to make it taste better ? Lol 1st trimester and not taking prenatals ❤ Thanks for the recommendations tho
I have the nourishing traditions cookbook.
My gran (10 kids) did not take pre-natals (this was war era Belgium, Europe, it just did not exist). She lost a couple teeth due to the babies taking her calcium supply. My mom? Same thing, in the 1970s, pre-natals still did not exist here. She lost 3 teeth due to being pregnant with me. I mean... IMHO it's fine, but it's still a risk, even though you eat the best you can eat. My mom was super healthy!
You're a beautiful and lovely lady.. I rarely comment on vids.. but I truly enjoy your videos
Ooh I have a medjool date idea for you! I’m totally addicted to putting pecan halves in the middle of a date. It’s like the most amazing decadent-seeming dessert ever! 😋 I usually end up squishing more pecans inside before I’ve finished the date Lol. Delicious!!!
What do you do for shedding
Thanku mam 😊❤️❤️❤️❤️
I bet the dates would be good stuffed with goat cheese…🤔
I can't wait for your herbal infusion video! Thanks for sharing this info.
"Cholerella is good for you because it contains chlorophyl"
Chlorophyl is a green pigment in green plant parts. Why would it be good for people? 🤷♀
Nice!
PLEASE SEND THE VLOG ABOUT THE TEA.
I did grow up eating liver, but hated every bit of it…🤢
so far all boys!

Also, a lot of people sensitive to histamines cannot consume bone broth because it is a high histamine food and gives them stomachache and diarrhea :(
I wont even get started on grains (which all have gluten) and are toxic to all healthy humans. Fermenting them (sourdough) doesnt touch the gluten. I used to be an avid baker.
Rice has the least amount of gluten and once you detox you cant go back.
Grains are directly linked to aggression in people, poor impulse control especially in children, heavy on the mental issues, depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, cancer growth, destroys the intestinal lining, tricks the immune system to attack the thyroid, auto immune diseases, what people call “effects of aging”…. And if you read in Genesis you see that grains were actually given to Adam as a punishment, a curse, for sinning after the snake and Eve were also cursed.
Grains are complete poison.
For something to be considered “food” according to the dictionary, it has to be nutritious AND have the ability to sustain life and growth, not the opposite.
Spirulina is chlorella on steroids! Hehe

I am 32wks and in medical school specializing in naturopathic medicine.
Paleo is a really good way to live, very nutrient rich anti inflammatory way to eat. It helps and give your body what it needs to heal itself and detox effectively.
Research boys brains and DHA.
I just wonder about how high your LDL-cholesterol / cholesterol in general is…
I have had to get biometric screenings with work every year and when I followed the practices of Weston A Price and Nourishing Traditions my LDLs have been low and my HDLs are high. That is just me though.
@@thedoodle2009 I just can’t imagine with eating 4 eggs a day, let alone all the other high amounts of saturated fat and animal products she consumes, her cholesterol just can’t be low at all. My LDL is very low and my HDL is higher than my LDL so I am good but I eat a totally different diet than she does. It just worries me, I don’t want others to blatantly take her word when she says saturated fats in high amounts are healthy (which they are not) and a high cholesterol is NOT helpful during pregnancy (It can actually lead to tons of problems). And a pre-natal is advised even if you are ‘sure’ you’re getting everything you need from your diet. I know this will be her fifth fucking kid and she may not have had many problems, but others may not be so lucky. I don’t care how people eat really, I just am worried about the baby, obviously.
I was worried listening to this.This was me,my diet for most of my life,as it was my family's. I never expected to be widowed at a young age nor to be diagnosed with cardiovascular disease.Directly from our diets.We loved our fats and sugar.😢I never realized the damage I was causing.
@@joyce7310 I am so sorry to hear that Joyce! I too have lost loved ones due to such a diet. It’s awful and it made me feel betrayed. But it also gave me the motivation to change things around (diet and exercise related) and help my alive family members as-well as myself. I hope you can still enjoy your life, and hopefully you don’t suffer too greatly, Joyce. Best wishes to you.
@@bionikpaws3149 I eat like this and my overall health is waaaaay better than when I was eating a low fat, mostly plant based diet. I sometimes eat 6 eggs a day or more lol. And prenatals are something that North Americans are obsessed with, but it's not really a big thing in the rest of the world. It's all about marketing. Working on the health field, I was shocked when I moved to the US and saw how obsessed people are with prenatals, but then they barely bother trying to get those nutrients from food... especially bc a bunch of the nutrients found in those multivitamins are barely absorbed, or in forms that are less than ideal, and they're not that hard to come by from dietary sources. Also incredibly expensive for what they offer. It shocks me when I see people worried about a woman eating whole, nutrient dense foods that have been consumed forever, but then advise taking multivitamins lol upside down world.
sorry you lost me at eggs and meat..
The amount of misinformation here is shocking. I'd rather believe a medical doctor than someone on RUclips, a thousand times over and I advise other people to do the same. There's a reason pregnant women are told to avoid eating liver and are advised prenatal vitamins - folic acid is extremely important and not just that, it's almost impossible to meet the daily requirement of iron through diet alone, during pregnancy. Also, salt increases retention of water causing edema, when pregnant women are already prone to developing swollen limbs. Ugh, I can't anymore with this video.
Im seeing a trend with people who "suddenly" got long hair they all got pregnant. It makes me lose hope in my own long hair journey cause none of their "hair tips" they preach are working
TBH, I never did get it about that pregnancy thingy. I don't understand why women do that to themselves.
Idk why I thought this comment was hilarious 😂
Thanks so much!!🥺🥲I read Dr. Price’s book 8 years ago when I was breastfeeding my first and got my first ever cavity😔 i found some raw milk (sold for pets) in Mississippi and my tooth pain went away, but then the cow dried up before I could get more and it took another year or 2 of searching to find another farmer. I had to get that cavity filled.
Do you have advice for someone allergic to meat? I found i have only been able to eat sardines and cod liver oil. I went on the autoimmune protocol diet for my chronic virus (fruit, veg, meat) and felt fantastic, but tried organic grass fed beef liver and had a horrible reaction. If you’re debating trying liver for the first time and don’t have a chronic virus, i wouldn’t be worried. I think because i was so sensitive already, whatever toxins the cow’s liver had filtered out to protect the cow really did not agree with me. I tried reintroducing chicken (extremely allergic) and salmon (i tolerated a few bites) but it’s been difficult to reintroduce sourdough bread, eggs, or grass-fed dairy yogurt/cheese etc because i stay busy and can’t afford to be wiped out from a bad food reaction. I find that i have to push all my meals into the middle of the day and eat light snacks (which are also difficult to find in MS because of seed oils in everything here).
I found Misfits Market which ships organic produce and some healthier grain-free snacks and foods to your door. And a town 20 min from me has a health food store with other things i can have when I’m waiting on a Misfits box.
But any tips for “unintentional vegans” would be so appreciated! I did used to be able to eat a Dr Price diet several years ago but right now I’m healing and so sensitive and busy/committed i don’t have time to experiment with and test out foods that might make me have to miss work.
It’s difficult but the Lord Jesus has guided me this far and brought me to you and to others and has answered my prayers for help through this by having these people’s videos pop up and having friends share their research and resources❤
It’s been “slower” than the mainstream approach, but that’s actually good! Part of the reason I’m so sick is because of adverse reactions to pharma and otcs. So to me, and from my observations of others’ health problems, mainstream mindset=fast but ineffective, and traditional mindset=slow but effective
