We wrote Milk to Meals because we knew there had to be a better way.
When we first started researching this topic, we found a surprising lack of clear information. The advice we did unearth included outdated advice that conflicted with our evidence-based research.
That’s when we joined forces and pooled our years of professional experience to create a resource we knew the world needed.
The result? This book! It was created for parents looking for a better way to nourish their babies — holistically and sustainably.
