Macro Mama (still being called Macro Baby Food) is pureed vegetables for mothers beginning their babies on solid and it continues through the growing stages of babies up to 12 months. There is also a toddler snacks and treats menu that continues to use only natural, organic, whole foods that are nutrient dense. All items are Macrobiotic, vegan friendly, gluten free, and organic.
The pureed vegetables are in three stages: (1) 6 months /Infant, ( 2) 9 months, and (3)12 months plus. These stages are broken down by combination of vegetables and amount of water used to cook the veggies. Macrobiotic research was done in order to see which veggies were best for infant’s digestive systems and how to keep the body as alkaline (compared to acidic) as possible to aid in good health.
If you notice the differences between my product and the competitors’ products are that (1) I do not use tropical fruits because of the acidity level in them, (2) I do not combine fruit and veggies because of the stress it puts on the digestive system, (3) I do not add any extra ingredients to my product. Another difference is that I use cast iron or stainless steel pots to cook with, and I only wooden utensils. This is significant because of the research that has been discovered about chemicals being released when using caphalon pots and pans and plastic utensils when heated.
