Subject: Dutch child only allowed to eat raw food

In The Netherlands, there is a mother who refuses to let her son (Tom Watkins) eat food hotter than 40 degrees centigrade.
In her opinion, food produces non-bodylike gasses and other products, when food is heated over 40 degrees. She also wont give the boy meat or fish, and refuses to let him drink anything else than smoothies.

According to multiple doctors, the boy's body woks like the body from a starving child in Africa, as he doesnt get enough Calcium, fat and proteins. They fear his heath is in dander,as he is too small, and he doesn't develop in a good way, and want him to be removed from his mother. His mother claims that the doctors have no idea what they are talking about, ad that she knows best.

In fear of the boy eating things he isn't allowed to eat, she doesn't let him go to school. He gets home education from his mother.

All in all, his mother claims that he is free to eat whatever he wanrs, be she DOES keep him away from school and forces him to eat her diet.

Whaddaya think about this?

Sources are Dutch, so you would't understand it at all. But I'll give you a couple.

It should be possible to do that, if they'd use some sort of supplements to get that calcium, fat, and protein, or just adjust the diet to include more of those. Sounds like a pretty big risk, though.

What I want to know is, what gave her this idea?

While vegetarianism is stupid, you don't have to look like a starving child if you eat only raw veggies/fruits.

I could probably do an all-raw diet if I wanted to if it included meats. I have no problems eating fish or beef raw, and enjoy the various pork products raw as well (proscuitto, etc.).

Meat is not allowed, because she thinks that the government puts growth hormones in there.

If I recall correctly, she went to a restaurant with some friends. There, they discussed all the non-natural foods, the gasses coming free when cooking etc. All the bad stuff about food. She then realized, and concluded, that it would probably be better to eat only raw food. Having children, she passed it on.

OT: That mother is an idiot. Really bad thing. But to take the child away from the mother, I just don't know.

Well technically, most meat producers of livestock animals (cows, chickens, pigs) do put growth hormones in their meats nowadays.

Cooking food in high heat (pan searing, flash frying, etc.) also does produce carcinogens and breaks down the good parts of food (proteins, vitamins, etc.) because heat has a tendency to break apart the bonds.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Well, I thought we figured out that cooking food allowed for much easier digestion.

I wonder..

Would the government actually do something to our food?
