I'm trying to figure out if what I'm doing is healthy. I feel good, alert, awake, and I'm not hungry. Lately for breakfast I've been mixing up a carnation instant start breakfast (the dark chocolate variety with antioxidents - powder form) that I mix into a half cup of lactaid reduced fat milk. To snack I bought some dried fruit from welch's that come in snack packs of no more than 100 calories so i've been eating that. At lunch I drink a 11.5 fl oz can of low sodium V8. I usually have a normal dinner with meats and veggies and then dessert later in the night. Is this a bad diet?
Carnation Instant Start and V8?
It sounds alright. Just be sure you take a good multi-vitamin/mineral supplement as well.
Reply:it sounds pretty good to me. i would just suggest throwing some nuts, string cheese or yogurt, and lots of water in and you're set.
your diet sounds similar to mine and i've felt great lately. i eat a lot of yogurt, cheese, fruit, homecooked meals for dinner, and tons of water and it's worked really well for me as far as energy, weight stabilization, and general health. good job!

Carnation seedlings?
About two weeks ago, I planted several carnation seeds. They have since then sprouted, and are all about 1 1/2 inches long. Do I repot them individually? Can I leave them in the same 8in pot? Do I report them deeper? I'm pretty new at all this so any advice would be well appreciated!
Carnation seedlings?
If you only have a few in the pot, you can leave them in the pot they're in. Be very careful about overwatering. Carnations will rot very easily. If you do transplant them, don't pot them any deeper than they are growing now.
Reply:How many total you have? If you think it's too crowded. then you need to get rid of few of them or repot. Others can grow stronger since they won't fight for water nutrition. It's better that you only have few in a pot.

What is the difference in Nestle Good Start and Carnation Good Start? Are they the same?
They are the same. In 2004 Nestle changed the name from carnation. I called the company out of confusion.
What is the difference in Nestle Good Start and Carnation Good Start? Are they the same?
Carnation and Nestle are the same. Where there is a difference is between Good Start and Good Start 2. Make sure you buy the right now for your baby.
I weaned my baby at 11 months (a month early before it's OK to take cow's milk) so I used Nestle Good Start 2.
Reply:Nestle Good Start is the same as Carnation...that is, nestle owns the carnation brand.
I used this formula for my son after I stopped breastfeeding when he was 4 months old. It was great...it was the only formula he could keep down.
Reply:Nothing.
They are both from the same company and have the same crap in it.
Reply:if u like coffee then nestle is good start
Reply:Nothing they're both crap, breast is best !

I am growing carnation flowers. Do I cut the dead blooms off? If I don't will it prevent them from reblooming
Yes always remove the dead blooms from flowers. Otherwise they will use all of their energy to make seeds instead of producing more flowers.
I am growing carnation flowers. Do I cut the dead blooms off? If I don't will it prevent them from reblooming
your actually suppose to cut them all down every once in awhile because it keeps the plant healthy!
Reply:definitely its called "dead heading"and should be done on most flowers.

Can i feed my baby carnation milk mixed with karo syrup instead of formula?
NO NO NO
You can however feed the baby goat milk, it is in a can.
(if this is because you can't afford the formula, look into the WIC program.-don't make a big mistake to save money. There was a woman who could not afford formula and fed her child too much water and killed him.)

U are not for real isn't it?
Do not experiment with your baby. SMA, Cow%26amp;GAte etc is what you give
Reply:why on earth would you want to do that.
Reply:why would you do that?... that is horrible... if formula is to expensive get on W.I.C!!
Reply:Plain and simple No!!!
Reply:The answer is definitely NO. Absolutely no way can you give a baby all that sugar. If you aren't going to breastfeed please buy proper formula whether cow's or goat's milk based.
Reply:NO! Breast milk and formula are the safest things to feed an infant under 12 months. Most "grandparents" will tell you that "that's what I fed you," but pediatritions highly recommend breast milk or formula.
Reply:You don't say how old your baby is, but I sure wouldn't recommend it (especially without a pediatrician's approval) Cow'a milk isn't recommended until 1-year, and even then it's suggested that you speak to the pediatrician first.
Formula is easier to digest and is fortified with many vitamins and nutrients (DHA ; ARA ; Omega-3 ; Omega-6 etc.) that are idea for babies.
Take care
Reply:you cant give a infant kayro syrup everyday, kayro syrup is to help you have a bowel movement, thats not good on its stomach everyday. stick to breast milk or formula or whatever the doctor tells you. trust me, i give my niece a teaspoon of kayro syrup when she gets constipated and she runs to the bathroom in minutes, shes 10yrs.
Reply:NO - formula milk is created specifically for babies as a substitute for breast milk. Breast is best but formula will do as well. Other types of milk are not suitable for infants.
Reply:not a good idea
Reply:ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! You will make him seriously ill!!
Reply:ABSOLUTELY NOT! babies aren't supposed to have real milk until they are at least one years old and many of them are actually lactose intolerant. why would you want to feed your baby this?
Reply:NO WAY! neither is good for your baby! can cause serious health problems!!
Reply:No, never
Reply:Don't experiment on your baby. The best solution would be to breast feed. If this is not possible or practical, you should use formula recommended by your doctor. If there is a problem paying for the formula, there are agencies such as WIC (Women, infants and Children) which will subsidize your formula purchases. Contact your local family service agency.
Reply:Carnation milk is cows milk and shouldn't be given before one year old. In the old days they used to feed babies carnation milk, but it's been shown to be sooo unhealthy for babies. Please stick to forumula, it's much more nutritionally complete. It has all the vitamins and minerals. It's the closest thing to breastmilk out there.
Reply:Heck NO !
Reply:You wont make it ill. You wont rot its teeth or addict it to sugar.
I couldnt breast feed my oldest child and she was allergic to formula and is 26 years old now so that was back before they had soy based formula.
She was raised on carnation and karo mixed to the specifications that her pediatrician recommended and she did just fine. Infact, shes a healthy active mother of 2 now and a nurse. SO it will not harm your child. Just make sure you discuss this with your doctor and find out how to mix it properly.
Reply:No. Carnation milk is formulated for baby cows, not baby humans. Your baby needs the extra nutrition and digestibility of formula.
Don't add Karo syrup to any milk. Milk is sweet on it's own and you'll be setting baby up for "bottle mouth" rotten teeth.
If formula is too expensive, try a powdered version.
Reply:OMG no!!! Please don't do that! The formula has all kinds of nutrients found in breast milk especially the ones with DHA and ARA and since breast milk is the best for baby you should at least get as close as possible to it. Karo syrup is serisouly very bad, it has parasites in it.
Reply:Yes, you could... but it could lead to serious health problems. Better to stick with commercial brands of formula over most homemade formulas as the nutritional content will be better regulated.
Reply:i fed my kids evaporated milk and karo syrup, but that was 30 yeqrs ago. My daughter would say no unless he or she is over a year. and then it needs to be whole milk. If you have trouble affording the formula, call your social services dept and ask about the WIC program. It is for moms and babies nutritional needs
Reply:NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO.But if your not sure ask health visitor thats what there there for.
Reply:uh, no! why don't you just go out and buy some coca cola, then give it that. are you sure you are smart enough to raise a kid? oh ya, i forgot........you don't have to be smart to get pregnant.........ask any council house tenant.
Reply:Karo syrup was added to formula to help babies who had constipation- when my kids were younger. I wouldn't think that would be an OK thing to serve everyday- or your diaper duty will be crazy.
Why do you want to serve something other then formula?
Reply:Please listen to all the people who said NO! It could seriously harm your baby to give anything other than breast milk or formula milk made up in the way it is illustrated on the tin.
Babies have died from being given these kind of mixtures - I'm not trying to scare you - but please do not give carnation milk or karo syrup.

An infant's digestive system is not prepared to
digest such foods.
Consult WIC, which is a federally funded program
that helps provide infants, children and mothers with
infant formula, food and information about nutrition for
babies, children etc. Every state in U.S. has this program,
it is called the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) program.
Call your local social services agency like the foodstamp
office and they should be able to direct you.

Is carnation evaporatedmilk condensed milk?
No, it is very very different and if your recipe calls for condensed milk then that's what you need.
Here is how to make it in a crunch:
3/4 cup white sugar mixed with 1/2 cup water and 1 1/8 cups dry powdered milk: Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until thickened, about 20 minutes
Is carnation evaporatedmilk condensed milk?
yes i think they are the same
Reply:Condensed milk is like evaporated milk with added sugar, as much sugar as it can take. Regular evaporated milk is only heat concentrated milk to which the water content has been reduced with no additives. taste and calorie content are VERY different
Reply:the two are very different. Evaporated milk has had half the water removed, so it's thicker and richer than regular milk. Evap milk is not sweetened. Condensed milk is very thick and gooey, and has been sweetened. The can should read "sweetened condensed milk". They cannot be used interchangeably.
Reply:They are totally different ingredients and cannot be used interchangeably. That gal that gave you the quick way to make condensed milk though, that is a great idea. You do however need evaporated milk for pumpkin pie.
Reply:no cause one's thick and the other watery
Reply:No it isn't Condensed milk will say it on the can. Condensed milk is used a lot in making candy, and it is of a thicker nature. Good Luck!!!!
