Coffee break

Decaf coffee and the last Oreo.

I'm rising bread; I feel badly enough about Emer's teeth that I'm making all the white bread with eggs and calcium-enriched rice milk. I'd feed her chalk if I thought it would help. Eggs and beans and calcium rice milk and brown pasta and brown rice... what else has calcium in it? We're practically letting her eat fluoride toothpaste.

I keep hearing about Xylitol but she's only two. So I'm really not sure. Besides, sweets with Xylitol often have acids and things too.

You will also want to make sure she is getting plenty of iron in her diet, as calcium supplementation can decrease iron absorption. Dark green leafy vegetables (kale, rocket/arugula, spinach etc) are high in both iron and calcium.

So's eggs!
