I have been vegan for a while and feel that living on raw food is the right way for me. However i have a four month old who i am still breastfeeding, do i need to wait? would toxins go into my milk?

yes, any major or minor detox will show up in your milk so a big change during this time is not advisable. BUT luckily for you, transitioning to raw is often a slow process of introducing more and more over time and THAT should be fine for you, especially considering your current healthy diet. just go slow and cut out the cooked foods you eat bit by bit. maybe it will take a year, maybe two. you're on the path and it's a journey not a destination anyhow. you'll do fine.

I'd say just add as much greens and fruit in your diet that feels comfortable! and let you intuition guide you to the good stuff.

It is never too early to start eating foods that your body wants you too. Eating fresh fruit and vegies will have positive effect both on how you feel as well as on the quality of your milk, juicy fruit in particular.

Do not hesitate to follow your instincts!

All the best,

daisyshay,

The more nutritious the foods you eat, the more nutritious the milk your infant will eat. The more toxic the foods you eat, the more toxic the foods your infant will eat.

I agree with the above great posts by Coco...Bryan and everyone. If you are worried....introduce these healthy, raw plant foods at a slower pace....so that you and your baby grow accustomed to the new energy levels.
