Podcasts about fussy eater

Today we're tackling one of the most confusing – and often misunderstood – topics in children's nutrition: the difference between food allergy and food intolerance. As a paediatric dietitian, I've seen too many families left in the dark, feeling exhausted and overwhelmed, just trying to figure out what's upsetting their baby's tummy. In this episode, I help you untangle the facts from the fear. Whether you're dealing with a fussy eater, concerned about your little one's bloating or tummy pain, or unsure how to approach a potential food allergy, I'm here to walk you through it. You'll also hear real-life stories from families I've helped, and how making the right diagnosis – and nutritional swaps – can make all the difference. What we cover in this episode: 1. Allergy vs Intolerance – What's the Real Difference? We break down the science and symptoms of each, and how to tell them apart. 2. Why Gut Health is the Game-Changer Learn how a calm immune system and nourished gut can reduce reactions and support your child's development. 3. What Symptoms to Look For From chronic tummy aches to skin flare-ups – how allergies and intolerances can show up in unexpected ways. 4. The Hidden Risk of Nutrient Deficiencies If your child is avoiding foods like dairy, wheat, or egg, I explain what nutrients may be missing and how to safely replace them. 5. Diagnosing Correctly Without Over-Restricting Why it's so important to get the right support, so your child isn't missing out on nutritious foods they could actually tolerate.

I want to take a moment to acknowledge all the incredible mums out there. Whether it's Mother's Day or just another busy day, the role you play in your family's life is nothing short of amazing. Today, I'm diving deep into something we all struggle with—comparisonitis—and the mental load we carry as mums.

This episode will help you realise that you're doing an incredible job, even if it feels like it's never enough. In this episode, I discuss: Comparisonitis How exhausting it can be.and why it's so important to recognise when it's happening and how to break the cycle. The Mental Load of Motherhood Mums often wear multiple hats every day. I dive into how managing your family's needs can feel overwhelming, and how to lighten the load. Why Perfection is Overrated It's easy to feel like you're failing when things aren't perfect. I discuss why embracing imperfection is key to better mental health and parenting. Filling up our Cup We all need a little self-care. I share some strategies to carve out time for yourself, even if it's just a few minutes a day. If you're feeling overwhelmed or doubting yourself, take a moment to breathe and remember that you're doing the best you can. Your kids are loved, they're fed, and they're thriving. And that's what matters.   Show Notes: More about Karina and Nourishing Kids!

In this episode, we're diving into the art of making packed lunches that your child will eat, enjoy, and benefit from nutritionally.

We'll cover:  Why balanced lunches matter Practical ways to make lunch a success, not a battle Simple swaps and small tricks to improve variety and nutrition.

A couple of years ago I found myself sobbing into my husband's shoulder saying 'I'm so SICK of cooking dinner every day!' It was SUCH a wake up call. Because that wasn't me. Cooking is my language of love. Cooking is how I relax. Cooking is my creative outlet. And cooking good food for my family was always my greatest mission in life. But given a fussy eater, and a few years later I was exhausted. I suddenly realised that it had been a LONG time since I'd cooked for me. For my pleasure. For my tastebuds. From that moment on I knew something had to change. And I knew the way I was feeling wasn't unique. If cooking food was becoming exhausting for me, a nutritional therapist and trained natural chef, then it must be true for many other mothers out there. I started putting myself first once in a while. I started cooking the food I like again.  And just like that I found myself crawling out of my cooking rut. In this episode of Raising Healthy Mothers I am going to talk about getting yourself out of your cooking rut. I discuss... The 4 reasons you've found yourself in a cooking rut 4 ways to help you find your way out of it The secret sauce to meal planning that will save you time and energy... and remove decision fatigue I created a brand new resource to help you out of your cooking rut. To download your Hassle-free Template Meal Guide for Busy Mums, head to tashadcruz.com/template. There are enough recipe suggestions in there to create a 6 week meal plan. I've even created a fillable, customisable table with  dropdown box options to build your meal plan in the document itself. Using this guide will save you time and energy AND remove decision fatigue.   If you are struggling with the stress of a fussy eater and want to bring some calm to mealtimes, you can buy my How to Feed a Fussy Eater workshop, where I offer 5 mindset shifts to help you and your child maintain calm and curiosity around mealtimes and how to expose them to food other than putting it on their plate, as well as tips on making food as nutrient dense as possible.   I highly recommend getting a veg box to challenge yourself to try new food.

Breakfast is often touted as the most important meal of the day. Yet it's also usually the meal we put the least amount of thought into. It's obvious why – there's usually not much time and there are places to get to, so convenience wins every time. And for fussy eaters, it's often thier moment to shine. Becuase they get the same, predictable meal most days. It's usually always the same colour, the same texture and the same taste. It's reliably...bland. Like all other meals of the day, breakfast should be a source of quality nutrients and energy to fuel your child's day – especially if they're off to school where they need to use their brain. So in this episode I offer ideas on gently un-beiging your fussy eater's breakfast. I discuss... Why it's probably not your fault if your child is a fussy eater 4 top tips to introduce more nutrients and variety into the food they already eat How to talk about food positively in a way that gets them trying new food Why I discuss poo with my fussy eater If you'd like to get more help with fussy eating, take the pressure off yourself and bring some peace back to dinner time, my workshop How to Feed Your Fussy Eater is half price this week using code BLACKFRIDAY.

Why are kids so fussy around food? Are their taste buds different?   In this episode Dr Samantha Goldman, an occupational therapist and feeding therapist, discusses the sensory fears that children can have around food. She explains that disliking the taste of foods is usually the first assumption parents make, but the sensory fear of food also involves how the food looks, feels, smells, and possibly the noises associated with it.   She suggests parents should try to understand their child's sensory journey of food from the child's point of view, and not label kids as fussy or picky eaters.   She recommends techniques such as food chaining and the SOS approach.   Listen For: 13:24 Understanding sensory processing 18:40 The food chaining technique 21:54 The SOS approach 29:22 Promoting independence and skill-development   Guest: Dr Samantha Goldman, Magical Mealtime Specialist Samantha is a pediatric occupational & feeding therapist whose mission is to provide online education to help parents, adults, & therapists finally understand the sensory system & how to help the senses feel their best, so you can make life a bit less chaotic and a lot more fun.

I was a very fussy eater as a child. It's one of those family truisms. They still laugh about it now. I don't; I feel for little me who found it so very hard to eat everything people wanted me to.   Now as a nutritional therapist, natural chef and all-round food lover, I am well and truly out of that phase. There's very little I won't eat and I love cooking for people.   And I also happen to have a fussy toddler - despite doing what I thought was all the right things from the very start. So I know exactly how it feels to be in a battle around mealtimes - both as a fussy child myself AND as a mother of a fussy eater.   In this episode I'm diving into why mealtimes have become a battlefield for you and your child and offer a new way of approaching mealtimes to help bring some calm to mealtimes - for you and your fussy eater.   I'm going to talk about The joy of crunchy beige food for a toddler - and how much easier it is to cope with this phase once we understand why they are drawn to it so much The influence how we feel about food has on our children and why it contributes to a stressful atmosphere Why bribing your child with dessert for eating more of their main meal can backfire I know firsthand how mentally challenging coping with a fussy eater can be. My fussy eater is still very much a work in progress - and who knows whether my second will turn out to be selective too! But I know I'm on the right path because he is slowly (very slowly) starting to try new things.

Getting to know his wife through a magazine, convincing a fussy eater child to eat her meal, and creating a schedule to manage working from home. I talk to Gaurav Jain about raising his family in Singapore, while making work-from-home work with two kids. Gaurav Jain is the Director of Engineering at Autodesk. Throughout his career, he has also started several side projects such as an online social platform for creative professionals and edutech mobile apps and games. He met his wife while browsing a magazine of potential partners, which turned out to be one of the best decisions in his life. She later became the mother of his two kids, aged 11 and 6. The first was born in India while the second was born in Singapore - two blessings they never expected, but now relish. Gaurav shares one of the challenges of raising kids - fussy eating. To address this, he researched a variety of parenting techniques and experimented through trial-and-error. He recounted how starving his elder child for a day in an attempt to make her hungry and eat did not pan out as planned. As a parent in tech, he also talks about the benefits and challenges of working from home as the lines often get blurred. To create a sense of balance between the two under one roof, he creates a strict schedule of work time and family time.

Intuitive Eating advocates may have us believe that we will naturally start to crave nutritious food after allowing ourselves to eat what we want, but is this true? What does it look like if you're someone who feels more selective around food or doesn't really like vegetables? In this episode, we talk about... The foods that Sarah and Stef don't like Do you say cilantro or coriander? What do you do if you don't like vegetables? Are there foods we don't like or foods we believe we don't like? And vice versa Do processed foods beget more processed foods? Nutrition as a habit Does what we eat matter so much? Join the LAD Membership! Connect with the show!

As we all know, a well-balanced meal contains a combination of vegetables, protein and carbohydrates. When encouraging and supporting children who are fussy eaters you can be lucky for them to eat one of these alone, and that could be on a good day. Pre-plating children's meals have long been known as a practical way for parents to try and provide a solid nutritional foundation however, but, how beneficial is this method? Is there something else can we be doing to try and help encourage and foster fussy eaters' interest and enthusiasm toward food? Well, that's what we're here to discuss today with our special guest and resident expert in fussy eating, Marie-France Laval. Marie-France Laval is a Dietitian-Nutritionist, Home Economist and Counsellor originally from France. Marie France is also the CEO of Fussy Eater Solutions where she offers a range of online and in-home programs to support fussy eaters and their families. We ask Marie-France questions including: Where does pre-plating come from? Pre-plating seems practical, so what's wrong with it? hat causes pre-plating to go from practical to problematic? What is the difference with the family style, otherwise known as the European way of serving meals? How is that not equally nutritionally obsessed and focused? Family style of serving, is this, not more work? How does the family way of serving meals support fussy eaters? How can parents introduce this? How does pre-plating equally influence obesity and an unhealthy relationship with food that can last an entire lifetime? You've always recommended the inclusion of a second course such as bread/crackers with cheese or yoghurt, fruit or dessert. Why is this?

Nutrition is often a topic of debate especially when it comes to children.Some of us stick to what we serve the family but as the child grows, parents have to frequently deal with a child not opening up to new foods, eating only a specific food items or may be denying foods.In this episode , Nidhi Yadav who is child nutrition educator with certifications from UNICEF, Cornell and Stanford speaks to us about- the start of today's narrative on nutrition.- the involvement of families in ensuring good meal times.- the hullaballoo about Chia seeds in children food.- scheduled meal times for children.- whether there is a need of special preparation for children.If you like what you hear, leave us a review on apple podcasts. rate us on Spotify appLike this episode on other platforms.If you want to share a note with us ,  find us hereInstagram: @divyakapoorvoxFacebook: MommytrackdaddywhispersPodcastWebsite: https:divyakapoor.comMail: Mommytrackdaddywhispers@gmail.comNext up on Season 3 is an episode with a Physiotherapist on the importance of exercising during PregnancyNext up on Pregnancy Series is an episode on what is natural birth?

The following is a Feed Play Love highlight episode, back due to popular demand. When your baby starts solids it's exciting to watch them explore different tastes and textures. But sometimes our children will decide they don't like a certain food. What then? Will your child become one of those dreadful “fussy eaters”? Dr Jen Cohen, AKA The Fussy Eating Doctor, tells us how to define a fussy eater, and whether or not we can avoid them altogether. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Picture this scenario with me for a moment if you will. Your toddler, sat in their highchair, feeding themselves surrounded by food mess. Their meal is equal parts on the table in front of them, on their clothes, face, it's everywhere. As a parent, what is your first instinct? How reactive to mess at mealtime are you? Do you a) let your child be to explore their food's textures and take in the experience for what it's worth? Or b) do you grab the first sponge or wet wipe you can get your hands on and frantically clean their face and surroundings? Which of those two would you do?  It's good for us to know, that whatever your reaction is, it may in fact influence your child's eating habits later on life, which is exactly what we are here to explore today with our special guest and resident expert in fussy eating, Marie-France Laval. Marie-France Laval is a Dietitian-Nutritionist, Home Economist and Counsellor originally from France. Marie France is also the CEO of Fussy Eater Solutions where she offers a range of online and in-home programs to support fussy eaters and their families. We ask Marie France questions including: What impact do our reactions to mealtime mess have on raising confident eaters who can tackle most foods? In your years of experience, have you found there is a correlation between parents who are super clean and have children who are fussy eaters? Typically what type of parental behaviours can impact the chances of a child being raised as a confident eater? Some parents really cannot stand the mess, what does this look like during a meal? Why is this behaviour not helpful when a child is fussy? Why is it unwise to clean a fussy eater's face during meal times? Why is avoiding sauce and dips no a good idea? How can not allowing a child to self-feed backfire? Why is it so important that children learn to explore food with all their 5 senses? Does this mean a child could struggle from a sensory perspective? What tips can you share that can limit the toll on parents?

See more over at - https://www.myfussyeater.com/ Eve: Today you’re going to be speaking a bit about myfussyeater which is you’re Instagram and your journey of starting pick plates. Do you want to tell us about yourself? (0:36) Ciara: Most people would have seen me on Instagram or come across one of my recipes. I am a mum of 2, my kids are 10 and 7 now. Eve: Amazing, and your known as myfussyeater over on Instagram so do you want to tell me a bit more of what you do? (1:17) Ciara: So, it’s sort of a resource of recipes for kids and families with tips of how to get kids eating better. It started with my own experience with my daughter when she hit the toddler stage, she became really fussy. I was struggling a little with advice on the internet. There is so much advice out there for the weaning stage, but I found when she hit the toddler stage there wasn’t so much. So, I decided to do it myself, and started the website and uploading recipes, talking about what I was doing. Eve: What were your daughters’ habits of eating that made you want to start this? (4:14) Ciara: I think it was more that I didn’t appreciate the work and the effort that goes into feeding a child, because we were really busy with work and she went to an amazing childminder. She went there from when she was 6 months old, so all her weaning was done with the childminder and she had 3 meals a day there, so I was quite removed from the process and felt I just picked it up at the weekends. When she was 18 months old and I was at home feeding her, 3 times a day, I didn’t appreciate the work that went into it. she wasn’t eating a large variety of food, and just wanted plain food. Eve: What are your tips for fussy eaters or the reasons why children go into that stage? (6:15) Ciara: The first tip I always say to people is relax and just take a step back. It’s something most kids go through at some stage. Try to introduce foods very slowly, they need routine and consistency in their life. Getting them involved is really good as well, getting them in the kitchen helping even if it is just making a sandwich. Try to break the routine if it’s not working, there is no point doing it over and over again. Eve: They’re great tips. I know you have another Instagram called pick plates so could you tell us about how this started? (8:56) Ciara: Pick plates came about as I realised when I was feeding my kids, they ate a lot better when the food was on divided plates. As the kids got older and they had more friends coming round, they others were the same as well. When I use to serve platters of food separately and they were nicely presented, the kids used to eat more and some of my friends would say so and so doesn’t eat this at home but has eaten it now. I could only get similar plates to the pick plates now around Christmas time and they were bad quality, so I thought why not make my own and it went from there. Eve: going back to your children, I know you have been quite open with Finn’s diagnoses of Autism. Could you tell us a bit more about this diagnoses journey? (12:42) Ciara: So, we realised quite early on there was some issues there after his 2nd birthday. We were lucky we had good support from his nursery and local GP and he was diagnosed a year later at 3 and half. It has meant for Finn that he went to a specialist school, which is amazing. He was non-verbal for a long time and now its incredible and he’s come on so much. It’s not easy for him at all and were so proud of him. Eve: What does motherhood mean to you? (17:30) Ciara: It’s amazing, it’s the best thing I’ve ever done. I’m so happy I had my children and so grateful that I was able to have them. It’s a massive part of my life.

"My son would only eat white foods!" We started this chat off speaking about being a fussy eater, what is it like being one and how do you deal with fussy eating in your life?

We also heard from Mary and wait until you hear her phobia. It's ridiculous and she can't even say the word! She had us in stitches.

There's nothing quite as satisfying as watching a child eat with a healthy appetite. The reverse is also true. When a child is fussy you can hover over them at the dinner table, hoping against hope that they will eat something you have cooked. Dr Jen Cohen is a nutritionist at the University of NSW who specialises in diets for children who are undergoing cancer treatment and fussy eaters. Jen has helped many parents understand the behaviour behind fussy eating. In this interview Jen explains why a child can be fussy, what you can do to try and prevent it, and if that doesn't work how to manage a picky eater.
