The Six Week All Natural Challenge is a six week, step by step program to help you pinpoint and eliminate the chemicals and artificial ingredients in your diet. I struggled for years with my daughter’s behavior, and what I thought were ADHD symptoms. After researching the causes and treatments for ADHD I decided to change our eating habits. I eliminated certain artificial ingredients and within 36 hours my daughter was like a new person. I know this works.
I made the changes all at one time, which is a radical change that not all families are willing or able to undertake. So the Six Week All Natural Challenge takes you through the process over six weeks. You can begin it at any time and go at your own pace. Each week I focus on a specific group of additives, give you all the information you need to make the switch for that week, and most importantly, cheer you on. Most people start to see a difference within the first week. If you need a little more persuading about whether making the change to an all natural diet is worth the trouble, please take a minute to read these success stories. The feeling you get from watching your child transform right before your eyes is like none other.
Before you start, also read this article I wrote for Circle of Moms, called “How Artificial Ingredients Can Lead to Artificial Kids” for some background on how we got where are today. For a little inspiration and motivation, read the Success Stories from other Moms who have followed the Challenge.
