Podcasts about Childhood obesity

What happens when we face the hard reality of childhood obesity with solutions-focused honesty, grace, and hope? In this episode, Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast host, Jamie Belz, jumps into the passenger seat and releases the reins as a guest on The Liberty Wellness Podcast, hosted by Rebecca Stewart.  Rebecca is a National Board-Certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP), a homeschool mama of two, and the founder of Liberty Wellness & Co.—a virtual practice supporting clients through complex chronic illnesses like Lyme disease, Hashimoto's, and autoimmune conditions. She's also the creator of the Liberty Wellness Homeschool High School Health Curriculum, giving families a solid foundation for health education at home. Her heart for parents, children, and future generations shines through every word. After listening to Episode 35 of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, Rebecca invited Jamie to be a guest on her platform for a real conversation to help parents and kids understand: The biology behind childhood obesity - why it's not just “baby fat” and how early patterns set lifelong health trajectories. Parental guilt, shame, and fear—how to forgive ourselves and look forward with positivity as we help heal our families.  The impact of sugar, dopamine hits, screen time, and nutrient-deficient foods on kids' developing bodies. Why bio-individuality matters: every child is unique, and healing isn't one-size-fits-all. Generational cycles of health decline, including the eye-opening research of Dr. Francis Pottenger and the warnings of Dr. Weston A. Price nearly a century ago. How simple, doable changes—nutrient-dense meals, family modeling, stress reduction, and connection—can rewrite the story for our kids and grandkids. The powerful reminder that it's never too late to shift course, heal, and create meaningful change, redemption, and hope for healthier generations. ⁠Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon⁠ ⁠Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast – Episode 35: Childhood Obesity⁠ ⁠Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast – Episode 4: Bio-Individuality⁠ ⁠Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast – Episode 6: Pottenger's Cats⁠ ⁠Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast - Episode 30: Generational Health⁠ From Rebecca: Website: ⁠Liberty Wellness & Co.⁠ Homeschool Health Curriculum: ⁠Liberty Wellness High School Health Course⁠ Instagram + Facebook: ⁠@libertywellnessandco⁠ This episode is raw, informative, and filled with loving laughter.

Internal medicine-pediatric physician Chrissie Ott discusses her article "When the pediatrician is the parent: a personal reckoning with childhood obesity." Chrissie shares the deeply personal story of her own child's struggles with weight, the bullying and shame that compounded them, and the tension she felt balancing her medical knowledge with her role as a parent. She explains how reframing obesity as a relapsing, remitting neurobehavioral metabolic disease shifted her perspective, leading to a decision to pursue GLP-1 therapy in addition to lifestyle support. Chrissie candidly describes the relief of moving from blame to action, the transformation in her child's health and self-esteem, and her own decision to pursue board certification in obesity medicine. Listeners will learn about the challenges of navigating childhood obesity compassionately, the evolving role of medical treatment, and the importance of protecting dignity and autonomy while supporting kids in larger bodies.

While childhood obesity is often perceived as an urban problem, this is no longer the case in China. Recent data shows a rapid increase in overweight and obesity rates among school-age children, with researchers predicting that rural rates will surpass urban ones by 2025-2030. What is driving this accelerated rise in rural childhood obesity? On the show: Steve, Niu Honglin & Yushun

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy dives into the topic of GLP-1 medications, which have recently gained attention for their use in managing obesity and type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents. She discusses how these injectable drugs, like Wegovy and Victoza, enhance feelings of fullness and reduce appetite to mimick self-control. Dr. Kathy uses this topic to engage how we can teach character, self-control, and have a posture of support for our kids as they face things like obesity and a culture that pushes them to quick-fixes for big problems.

"Is walking to school really enough to tackle childhood obesity?" In this third episode, Dr. Olli Tikkanen and Dr. Rob Noonan explore the complex issue of childhood obesity and the social factors that contribute to it. Dr. Noonan shares surprising findings from his research, showing that while children from deprived areas are more likely to walk to school, they are also more likely to struggle with obesity. This challenges the assumption that simply increasing physical activity, like walking, is enough to combat childhood obesity. The discussion delves into the deeper, systemic issues at play, such as poor diets, reduced access to sports, and the social environments in which children live. The conversation further explores how behavioral interventions alone won't solve the issue of childhood obesity, as they fail to address the underlying causes - economic, psychological, and environmental factors. Dr. Noonan calls for a broader, policy-driven approach that creates healthier environments for children, rather than just relying on individual behavior change. If you're interested in how policy, environment, and health are interconnected, this episode provides a comprehensive look at the root causes of childhood obesity and what needs to be done to tackle it effectively. ____________________________________________ This podcast episode is sponsored by Fibion Inc. | Better Sleep, Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity Research with Less Hassle --- Collect, store and manage SB and PA data easily and remotely - Discover ground-breaking Fibion SENS --- SB and PA measurements, analysis, and feedback made easy.  Learn more about Fibion Research --- Learn more about Fibion Sleep and Fibion Circadian Rhythm Solutions. --- Fibion Kids - Activity tracking designed for children. --- Explore our Wearables,  Experience sampling method (ESM), Sleep,  Heart rate variability (HRV), Sedentary Behavior and Physical Activity article collections for insights on related articles. --- Refer to our article "Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior Measurements" for an exploration of active and sedentary lifestyle assessment methods. --- Learn about actigraphy in our guide: Exploring Actigraphy in Scientific Research: A Comprehensive Guide. --- Gain foundational ESM insights with "Introduction to Experience Sampling Method (ESM)" for a comprehensive overview. --- Explore accelerometer use in health research with our article "Measuring Physical Activity and Sedentary Behavior with Accelerometers ". --- For an introduction to the fundamental aspects of HRV, consider revisiting our Ultimate Guide to Heart Rate Variability. --- Follow the podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/PA_Researcher  Follow host Dr Olli Tikkanen on Twitter https://twitter.com/ollitikkanen  Follow Fibion on Twitter https://twitter.com/fibion  Check our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@PA_Researcher   

Stop Adding Cereal to Your Baby's Bottle! Why This Outdated Advice is Harming Your Child's Health | The Prime Podcast Are you a new parent struggling with a baby who won't sleep, seems constantly fussy, or is always crying? Have you been told by a pediatrician, a family member, or a parent in an online group to "just add some rice cereal to the bottle" to fill them up? This advice, though often well-intentioned, is a dangerous relic from the past that could be setting your child up for a lifetime of health issues. In Episode 340 of The Prime Podcast, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie Wies deliver a powerful and urgent message to all parents: STOP adding cereal to your baby's bottle. They expose this common practice as unscientific, outdated, and detrimental to an infant's developing system. This episode is a comprehensive takedown of one of the most persistent myths in infant care. The doctors explain why this advice is not only outside the scope of most pediatricians' nutritional training but is fundamentally at odds with a baby's physiology. You will learn why infants lack the essential enzymes to digest complex starches, how this practice can lead to severe digestive distress, and the shocking link between early introduction of solids and the modern childhood obesity epidemic, insulin resistance, and blood sugar dysregulation. More importantly, Dr. Skip and Dr. Julie reveal the real reason your baby is uncomfortable. It's rarely a hunger issue. Instead, they dive deep into the neurology of infancy, explaining how common misalignments (subluxations) in the neck and mid-back from the birthing process can interfere with a baby's ability to swallow, digest, and even feel comfortable enough to sleep. If you're feeling frustrated, judged, and desperate for a real solution that addresses the root cause of your baby's discomfort, this episode is your definitive guide. KEY TAKEAWAYS A Dangerous Myth: Adding cereal to a baby's bottle is outdated advice that can cause significant harm to their digestive and metabolic health. Digestive Immaturity: Babies do not produce the necessary enzyme (salivary amylase) to properly digest the starches in rice cereal, leading to digestive upset. Long-Term Health Risks: This practice is linked to the development of enlarged fat cells, insulin resistance, and an increased risk of childhood obesity. It's Not Hunger, It's Discomfort: Fussiness, poor sleep, and excessive crying are often signs of neurological and structural issues (subluxations), not a need for more food. The Neurological Connection: Misalignments in the neck and mid-back can directly impact a baby's ability to swallow and the function of the stomach valve (cardiac sphincter), leading to reflux and spit-up. The True Solution: Instead of masking symptoms with food, the primary issue must be addressed. A pediatric chiropractor can identify and correct the underlying misalignments, allowing the nervous system to function properly and providing lasting relief for your baby.  If you are struggling with your baby's feeding, sleep, or digestive issues, and you're tired of receiving outdated advice, it's time to seek a better solution. Find a pediatric chiropractor in your area to be a part of your trusted healthcare team.

A new study led by the University of Sidney with researchers from University College Cork has found that family-based programmes aimed at promoting healthy eating for children are not effective in preventing the risk of obesity. According to the HSE, 1 in 5 children across the country is overweight or obese, and it's worse for children from lower socioeconomic areas, where 1 in 3 are overweight or obese. Anton is joined by Donal O'Shea, Consultant Endocrinologist and HSE National Clinical Lead for Obesity, to discuss.

200 episodes ago, I had a simple dream: put life-changing information on a platform for free, and watch humanity transform. Today, that vision has created the world's leading health and wellness podcast, featuring conversations with RFK Jr. outlining his $1.9 trillion plan to end FDA corruption, Dana White sharing how his life was saved through basic keto principles and methylated vitamins, and even being invited to the White House with Max Lugavere to continue fighting for health advocacies. The movement to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) isn't just a slogan, it's a science-backed revolution; and we, at The Ultimate Human, continue to fight for this mission!

Calls for swift intervention to keep our young people healthy. A United Nations report suggests 9.4% of those aged five to 19-years-old are obese, and 9.2% are underweight. In the year 2000, 12% were underweight and just 3% were obese. Save the Children Advocacy Director Jacqui Southey told Ryan Bridge there needs to be better education around what is and isn't healthy. She says some products may appear healthy but are actually packed with sugars, salts, and fats. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Humans have long been exposed to three main types of smoke: from early domestic fires, modern wildfires, and more recently, tobacco and fossil fuel pollution. All release tiny particles from partly burned plants, containing harmful chemicals like nitrogen oxides and carcinogens. These particles raise risks for lung cancer, dementia, and even childhood obesity. Studies show that air pollution can disrupt brain chemistry, increase Alzheimer's-related proteins, and activate stress-related genes (NFkB, Nrf2). A new drug (GSM-15606) shows promise in reducing brain damage from pollution in mice. People with the ApoE4 gene may be more vulnerable, while the ApoE3 gene, possibly evolved 200,000 years ago, may offer some protection.

Childhood obesity is more than calories and exercise—it's a biological, hormonal, and psychological issue that can follow children into adulthood, impacting their health status for decades to follow, as well as potentially detracting from their overall quality of life - forever. In this episode of the Nutritional Therapy and Wellness Podcast, host Jamie Belz, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner and Master Health Coach, reveals why early intervention is essential. Learn how childhood eating habits determine the number of fat cells an individual will have for life and impact their metabolism and hormone regulation, making obesity harder to overcome later in life. Jamie explains how hidden factors—such as insulin resistance, food addiction, stress, screen time, and the Standard American Diet (SAD)—are silently contributing to this alarming health crisis. Most importantly, Jamie empowers parents with practical, realistic steps to help their families break the generational cycle of obesity. Tune in to discover how small, intentional changes around nutrition, mindful eating, family meals, screen time management, and joyful movement can dramatically improve your child's health trajectory Please leave us a five-star review, hit subscribe, and share this episode!

More and more, the country is devolving into health inequity—between the haves and have-nots. There's also a widening gap in nutrition, with obesity and attendant medical conditions disproportionally afflicting marginalized communities. Today's guest, Tambra Rae Stevenson, is addressing these disparities. She's a healthy food advocate and policy influencer, and a self-professed nutrition warrior. Among her initiatives is WANDA—Women and Girls Advancing Nutrition Dietetics and Agriculture, an organization building a movement of women and girls of African descent to become food “sheroes” in their communities through education, advocacy, and innovation. We discuss barriers to optimal nutrition, food “deserts”, and special needs of underserved populations. There's a paucity of trained nutrition educators of color, and Stevenson is spear-heading initiatives to incentivize development of a cadre of community-based advocates for healthy diets. We discuss the importance of involving kids early, through programs like school and community gardens. Stevenson shares her personal journey exploring her African roots, discovering the benefits of centuries-old traditions of ancestral foods; she's leveraging these insights to promote culturally-appropriate healthier food choices. Initiatives like WANDA can make a huge difference in reversing the tide of preventable disease.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Tambra Raye Stevenson, nutrition educator, policy advisor, food justice activist, and founder of WANDA (Women, Advancing, Dietetics and Nutrition).

In this episode of the Dr. Tyna Show, I'm sharing my five simple yet powerful steps for MY version of MAHA: Make America Healthy Again. While I wholeheartedly support this movement, I highlight the need for more naturopathic and holistic doctors who are TRAINED from day 1  in chronic disease management within the movement overall. I also don't think negotiating with Big Food is a viable solution and I unpack why and what I propose instead, because swapping crappy cereal for more ultra processed, sugar laden cereal is NOT the solution. We'll discuss understanding metabolic dysfunction and the importance of reading food labels, education for our young people of America AND their parents, along with essential strategies to empower you OWN health choices. Education leads to empowerment. Plus, let's bring back an appreciation of PHYSICAL FITNESS. None of the food supply matters if we are all flabby and weak. Let's Make America FIT Again!
