Hi, my name is Emily Tai-- a State Registered Nurse, State Certified Midwife & Intensive Care Trained Nurse by profession & has worked for over 20 years as a nurse in various nursing specialities.I enjoy cooking & maintaining good health.Eating healthy food need not be bland but tasty & delicious if only you know how.
I am the author of this book : Will Your Child Eat A Tomato? --available as ebook (for non residents of Singapore) and physical book for Singapore residents.
For non residents pls.visit this website: food4pickyeaters.com so that you can order a copy if you wish to.

I am sure most parents will ask their children what they eat in school when they come back from these kids institutions. BUT have U ever start counting the amount of vegetables & fruits your kids had consumed in 1 week?
Probably most of you got a shock of your life after checking into every meal --- your kid actually consumed a tiny fraction of the daily recommended amount!!
So are you having problem getting your children to consume the world healthiest food...that tomato or 1 slice of carrot /1 strand of the green veg.? Well, very frustrating isn't it ? Fussy eaters can make you nag & worry about not eating a balanced meal. They are meat / fish lovers only.Its frightening to think of it! Well, you ain't alone.I have been there before.... I have 2 kids, 1 is a very picky eater! Hiding the healthy food in your cooking may not help either as I have gone thru it with my picky & fussy son till now --he is already 11 years old!! But theres one easy way to get them to consume much more veg. & fruits then you can imagine. I can guarantee it works for all children. Now my fustration with him has turn into enjoyment when I can get him to consume so many more types of vegetables & fruits in 5 to 10 mins. as compared to not knowing what to do. So find out how you can overcome this problem instantly from this book & have some peace in your mind. HAPPINESS IS SEEING THAT YOU SUCCEEDED IN OVERCOMING THIS FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM OF CHILDREN.
A survey has been done & it shows that more than 35% of children aged 2 years & above will not eat most vegetables because they have a sensitive tongue.
Children suffer from childhood illnesses eg. colds & flu, fever, epistaxis(nose bleed),eczema, headache, asthma , etc.due to several reasons. Have you ever wondered why? One of the reason is insufficient amount of veg./fruits comsumption. Have you heard of the vegetarian teenager who has never fallen ill & doesn't know what meat tastes like? Did you read the news (2 yrs ago) on triple bypass surgery being done on a S'porean as young as 28 yrs!! Obesity is also on the increase in young kids. Lets hope our younger generations will not have to go thru sufferrings at such a premature age... so lets take some preventive measures.
Children's immune system are developing. Not eating a balanced meal is another reason why some children fall sick more often.Our immune system depend entirely on us to eat the right food to help fight against micro-organisms, bacteria, parasites,viruses and tumour cells. Thus the 1st line of Defense is strengthening the Immune System.
What has inspired me greatly to write this healthy lifestyle information cum recipe book are my 2 kids (aged 8 & 13 yrs).They dislike eating many types of vegetables and also do not consume adequate amount of fruits.Nagging them to eat that miserable piece of vegetable on their plates won't help either.Majority of parents face the same predicament everyday!
You might think its no big deal & let them be picky about food since they will change when they grow up.True, children will eat abit more veg. when they grow up. But it really takes quite a long while for them ( many years) to eat different types of veg. & fruits.Children are just like a seedling growing, which needs constant looking after to ensure it gets enough water,food /fertilisers, sunshine & protection from cold & insects.etc, to ensure it grows up strong & healthy looking. Anything lacking due to not giving the seedling the right requirements, it will produce yellow leaf tips, look weak & sickly. Similarly with children if they dislike vegetables & fruits.
Scientific studies have shown that many childhood illnesses mentioned above came about due to insufficient consumption of these food. I have experienced all these with my kids thru my very own observations when I quit my job.I am glad I did, as good health for the family is something money cannot buy.
Scientists say we must eat at least 5 types/servings of fruits & vegetables a day in order to stay healthy.I bet fussy eaters have not even eaten 2 servings of any fruits or vegetables in 1 week! Nothing can replace natural food/nutrients which are born (not man made).This colourful and well illustrated nutritional cookbook contains a wealth of information, delicious recipes which are meant for the whole family to enjoy,( not vegetarian) & to food to help boost the immune system.
- Find out how U can increase their veg./fruit intake amount by several times in just 5- 10 minutes instantly & see the smile on everybody's face as everyone can enjoy these food too.
- Prove those adults/children wrong if they say they will never ever eat a tomato, carrot, celeriac etc. And now U are even giving them raw veg. ( with all the natural vitamins & goodness) without them complaining at all.Find out how.
There are lots of useful information & over 50 recipes for the whole family to enjoy -- very practical & easy to prepare yet delicious.This book is suitable for everyone ...with kids, without kids and even older adults whose children have grown up. U will be given another 20 more favourite recipes ( tested to be good ) & more useful / money saving information posted onto a website specially for U ---all for free! Also included are some useful household money saving tips. For books bought from bookshops, readers pls. email me for the free favourite recipes' website.
Prevention is better than cure but it is best if healthy living is introduced to your child from young so as to avoid childhood ailments & later on in life reduce/avoid infections, heart diseases,cancer,diabetes,blindness, high blood pressure, stroke, kidney failure, erectile dysfunction & last but not the least obesity! Don't be a walking time bomb & seek healthy lifestyle only when its too late.
We can inculcate healthy living to our children only if we as adults are well informed and can educate our children thru' effective communication. A book can last a life time, thus can be passed on to others.Against this backdrop the book was conceived.

I was delighted to hear from her & sent it to her home personally.
3) I received many calls for placing an order thru recomendationsof some readers.. Some find it useful that they asked their colleagues to see and some ordered 4- 10 copies.
4) A primary school teacher initially sent me a cheque for 2 copies , 1 month later she called me to order 6 more copies and I sent it personally to the school.
