Every parent wants to raise a healthy kid, but our modern world, industrialized diet, and increased stressors can make that goal feel confusing and difficult. The good news is that we can do so many things during a child’s life, and even before it starts, to give them the best possible chance to truly thrive in body and mind. I’m thrilled to share this in-depth conversation with pediatric Functional Medicine expert, and mom to 2 thriving children, Dr. Elisa Song.

In this episode, we discuss:

• The disappearing act of Bifidobacterium infantis and why it matters
• Why preconception support is so important for optimal epigenetic programming
• The bloodwork Dr. Song runs when first assessing a child
• One nutrient that might dramatically help your sensory-sensitive child
• A grounded discussion around the controversial topic of vaccines
• And so much more!

No matter how old your kids are, it’s never too late to upgrade their health with holistic approaches. I know you’ll love this episode as much as I did!
