If your child is a picky eater, I want you to take a deep breath with me. Because this is probably not the conversation you're used to hearing.You've likely been told it's just a phase. That you need to be more consistent. That your child will eat when they're hungry. That picky eating is about control, or parenting, or personality.But culturally, we've failed so many families - because this narrative is simply not true.What if picky eating isn't a behavior or parenting problem at all?What if it's actually your child's body, begging for help?Because it is.When your child's gut is imbalanced (meaning there's an overgrowth of bad bacteria, yeast, mold, fungus, or parasites) it doesn't just affect digestion. These microbes actually communicate with the brain. Through the vagus nerve, they send powerful chemical messages that shape cravings, mood, and even behavior.These overgrowths feed on sugar, processed carbohydrates, and refined ingredients. And the more they're fed, the more they grow. The more they grow, the louder they scream.This is why your child might melt down at the sight of a vegetable. Why they cling to white foods. Why they act like they physically can't eat anything else. Because in a way… they can't. Not yet.Thanks for listening!

August 01, 2025 Love as Your Legacy, call regarding a "picky eating" child by Dr. Farid Holakouee

Most parents think picky eating starts in toddlerhood. But according to Jenny Best, founder of Solid Starts, the roots go much deeper and earlier. In this Follow-Up episode, Jenny and I dig into the real reasons picky eating happens, what behaviors unknowingly contribute to it, and why feeding is so much more than just offering food. It's emotional. It's behavioral. It's developmental. And yes—it's totally fixable. Together they discuss: Why gagging isn't always a red flag (and how it helps build skills) The science behind chewing and why purees don't teach it How spoon-feeding past a certain age can delay oral development Why how we feed is just as important as what we feed The sneaky role anxiety and pressure play at mealtimes What Jenny wishes more pediatricians (and parents) understood Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

Ashley's "before" was as extreme as her "after" is glorious. God knows how to make sure that we give Him the glory. She's obviously blessed by a turnaround that only He could have orchestrated. Yet, she didn't trust me at first. She did NOT go all in...If you're dealing with autism symptoms in ways that do not line up with the research & effort you're already putting in, Ashley knows how heavy that burden feels, especially when you're knee-deep into recovery and already have seen SOME results.I have recordings of her crying while her son is throwing tantrums in the background  (she described it as "living with an alien"). Her darkest moment was when he gave her a black eye on their vacation. Her summer is now like most other moms'. Resting. Watching her children play. Enjoying time with her husband and time on her own. Tantrums, eloping, screaming, picky eating, and aggression - not in her house! Her sons are now bonding and playing in the garden. Ashley doesn't need me anymore. She "graduated from" the turnaround process in 2023.  She is now LIVING the turnaround lifestyle. On the other side of the turnaround program. She's enjoying the fruit of the work she's completed.Can you guess how long it took her to get there?Do you know what she did (which prolonged the turnaround process and made it longer than it had to be)?Do you know if you're unknowingly doing the same? And how to speed up the turnaround process instead?In this podcast interview with Ninka-Bernadette Mauritson:Ashley will tell you all the secrets about what blocked and facilitated her recovery process (some of them you're secretly doing too). The interview is a preparation class for moms who want to join her live meeting in August. Her reason for helping other autism moms? "I could walk away with my results and enjoy my life without autism now," - but if my story can bring hope and healing to another mom, that's what I want to bring. I delayed the turnaround by the things that I did and the things that I THOUGHT before fully surrendering to the process."  Enjoy this episode.Here are 3 ways we can start turning autism symptoms around together, whenever you're ready... 1. Send me a voice message and get my feedback on your most pressing struggles. 2. Check out the free video series "The 5 hidden messages behind autism symptoms" and find your child's unique triggers. 3. Work with me privatelyIf you'd like to work with me directly to turn as many symptoms around as possible in my Autism Turnaround Coaching and implementation group..send me an email with "coaching" in the subject line and tell me how old your child is. I'll get you all the details.

Is your child a picky eater, or is it something more serious — and how can you tell? Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) goes far beyond food preferences. It's driven by deep-seated fears of choking, vomiting, or other anxieties that can lead to dangerous nutritional deficiencies. In this episode, Gabe Howard sits down with ADAA member expert Dr. Jacqueline Sperling, a clinical psychologist and Harvard Medical School professor, to break down the signs of ARFID, outline how it differs from typical picky eating, and mention when parents should seek professional help. Learn how to spot the red flags, understand the role of anxiety in food avoidance, and discover ways to support kids managing this lesser known eating disorder. If mealtimes are a battle in your home, this episode is a must-listen! Special thanks to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America for sponsoring this episode.  “They could have different obsessions of what might happen should they eat any of those foods. Some could have a fear that there's contamination. Some can have a fear that it's cooked all the way. Some can have a concern that something separate from the food, but a negative consequence may happen if they eat those foods. It can also happen that someone is worried about having IBS symptoms in public, so they don't want to eat certain foods. And so they limit the foods that they eat, or even when they're at home because they're worried about when they go out in public afterward.” ~Jacqueline Sperling, PhD Our guest, Jacqueline Sperling, Ph.D., is a clinical psychologist, assistant professor in psychology at Harvard Medical School, and the co-founder and co-program director of the McLean Anxiety Mastery Program at McLean Hospital. She is the author of the young adult nonfiction book “Find Your Fierce: How to Put Social Anxiety in Its Place” and a contributor for Harvard Health Publishing. Dr. Sperling specializes in implementing cognitive behavioral therapy with exposure and response prevention and working with youth with anxiety disorders and obsessive-compulsive disorder. She also focuses on caregiver guidance, such as by using behavioral parent training, to help families address children's internalizing and externalizing behaviors. In addition, Dr. Sperling is passionate about disseminating evidence-based information to the community, and she frequently speaks about the impact of social media use on mental health. Moreover, Dr. Sperling is committed to increasing access to care and participates in advocacy at state and federal government levels. Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe is also the host of the "Inside Bipolar" podcast with Dr. Nicole Washington. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio. He lives with his supportive wife, Kendall, and a Miniature Schnauzer dog that he never wanted, but now can't imagine life without.

Cari and Jim discuss the complex relationship that Autistic children often have with food.  One liner for this episode: For Autistic kids, mealtime is about survival, not stubbornness. 

Abi's story stopped me in my tracks when she reached out and shared it with me. I had never heard someone healing quite like her son.He was covered in strange bumps, couldn't sleep, and was the pickiest eater. She spent thousands of dollars on appointments and herbs from a naturopath, hoping something would finally work. But nothing brought true healing. She eventually couldn't afford to keep working with this naturopath and that's when she found ōNLē on Instagram.She immediately said yes to the Rebalance Kit before she even finished scrolling the page, and never looked back. What happened next is something every mama deserves to witness.Her son began to eat again. Sleep through the night. The rage and overwhelm she had quietly been carrying melted away. Parasites and candida literally began exiting both of their bodies - even through his skin.Yes. That's how powerful healing can be when we let it be simple. When we stop second-guessing and start leading from trust.This weeks Follow Your Gut podcast episode is a raw, emotional look at what happens when a mama trusts her intuition and goes all in. Abi now mentors inside the Rebalancing Collective, our private support space for families walking this healing path and I couldn't imagine a more beautiful leader to guide you.You don't want to miss this beautiful conversation!Thanks for listening!

Your doctor told you it's “just a phase.” But what if your child's mouth breathing, constant congestion, or picky eating isn't just frustrating—it's your child's way of showing something deeper is going on? In this episode, Dr. Clayton—airway-focused dentist and father of two—shares five commonly overlooked signs that your child may be struggling with an airway issue. These aren't random quirks. They're signals. And the earlier you catch them, the better your child's sleep, development, and behavior can be. Please note: There are dozens of other symptoms! Only 5 are discussed in today's episode. Others that may show up are inflamed tonsils, delayed speech, bed wetting, crowded teeth, grinding their teeth day or night, and many more. This episode is for every parent who's ever had a gut feeling that something isn't quite right—but wasn't sure where to turn. Dr. Clayton walks you through what these red flags look like, why they matter, and what you can do starting today. Dr. Clayton is hosting a Live Airway Class on June 16th for parents who want to understand the signs, learn what really matters, and take action with a collaborative root cause approach to care.

In this eye-opening episode of Oh Crap with Jamie, I'm joined by pediatric airway dentist Dr. Kassi Klein to talk about something that's affecting way more kids than you might think: airway health. From mouth breathing and bedwetting to sleep struggles and ADHD-like behavior, Dr. Kassi helps us connect the dots between jaw development, oral habits, and the behavioral and developmental challenges we often chalk up to “just being a kid.”Whether your child snores, grinds their teeth, struggles to sleep, or seems to have constant meltdowns - you need to hear this. We're diving into the overlooked signs of airway issues, the long-term impact of underdeveloped jaws, and what parents can actually do to help.Timestamps:(00:03:20) Early Recognition for Children's Sleep Breathing Problems(00:05:17) Signs of Pediatric Airway Obstruction in Children(00:13:54) Maxillary Width and Nasal Breathing Efficiency(00:15:24) Optimal Tongue Placement for Nasal Breathing(00:19:45) Improving Oral Health Through Myofunctional Therapy(00:20:39) Tongue Function Impact on Picky Eating(00:22:32) Optimizing Airway Function for Improved SleepIG: @Dr. Kassi Kleinhttps://www.airwayhealthsolutions.comhttps://vivos.comhttps://www.toothpillow.com⁠Jamie's Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Oh Crap!

If you have a picky eater, you know that this can be one of the most maddening things about littles, especially if you are going to the work of preparing homemade, from-scratch meals or if you are spending money on quality ingredients just to have it end up in the trash.

Did you know that 90% of serotonin, an essential neurotransmitter for mood and attention, is made in the gut? This connection between the gut and brain explains why digestive health plays a crucial role in a child's emotions, behavior, and even their ability to focus. That's why it's important that we eat foods that support gut health and enhance gut-brain communication while also reducing triggers that impact digestion and overall well-being.The good news is that small changes can make a big difference. Even the pickiest eaters can make progress when their nervous system is supported and their gut is given the right nutrients to thrive. Let's dive deeper into how gut health influences behavior, focus, and emotional regulation, and explore simple, effective ways to nourish your child's digestive system. Not sure where to start?

In this episode, I am speaking with Elisa Kim, an award-winning design professor, and founder of Studio EGGI which is a functional designed mini kitchen for kids. She specializes in using play and design to help kids develop a positive relationship with food making mealtimes less of a battle and more of an opportunity for exploration and connection. Many parents believe food play is messy, wasteful, or unproductive, but research has shown that kids who engage with food touching, smelling, and even playing with it are likelier to try and enjoy new foods. And that is exactly what we talk about in today's show, how a play-based approach to food helps with picky eating, fosters independence, and helps make meal times fun again! You will love this conversation with Elisa, learning about Studio EGGI and how it can bring a magical transformational experience to meal times in your kitchen as it has in mine.   Highlights from this episode: How embracing food play tackles picky eating Inviting kids into the kitchen to explore new foods Using real kitchen tools builds confidence The concept of Studio EGGI + non-mealtime ideas Creating a Montessori/real life approach in your home Practical tips for mealtime Raising confident eaters Show sponsors: Ultimate Baby Nutrition Consulting - Send me an email at marniwasserman.com/contact with the title “I want to work with you” if you're interested in working with me to support your baby starting solids Paleovalley - Save 15% off your 1st order of Paleovalley products, discount applied at checkout Related links: Follow @marniwasserman and @ultimatehealthpodcast on Instagram for Sarelle and Hayden updates Studio EGGI - Save $100 off when you use the code Marni100 at checkout Follow Studio EGGI on Facebook and Instagram Subscribe to TUBP in Apple Podcasts and Spotify Note: Some of the links above are affiliate links.

"Undiagnosed food intolerances, gut inflammation, and nutrient deficiencies can actually close a child's palate and make picky eating worse." "When we're stressed at mealtimes, our kids pick up on it—we hold the keys to their nervous system." "Small changes make a big difference! Mix homemade and store-bought nuggets together, and kids often won't notice the difference." "The Family Food Challenge is about making mealtime fun and removing pressure—it's not about forcing kids to eat." "It can take kids 15 to 20 times to accept a new flavor or texture, so don't give up after the first try!" "If your child is gagging, panicking, or avoiding entire food groups, it may be time to seek professional support." "A simple zinc assay test at home can tell you whether your child is deficient in zinc, which impacts taste and appetite." "One of our team members' sons went from eating 5 foods to over 200 just by addressing food sensitivities and using these strategies!" "Remove the pressure from mealtimes—focus on connection, not control, and watch the stress disappear."r Dana Kay Resources:

If you have a picky eater at home, you're not alone! I'm right in the trenches with you. I've noticed that many parents find mealtime to be one of the most frustrating parts of the day, wondering how to get their child to try new foods without a battle. That's why I had to chat with Amanda Blechman, a registered dietitian, recipe developer, and mom of two, to help us parents navigate the tricky world of picky eating. I loved this episode with Amanda — she shared expert insights on what parents might be unintentionally not helping the situation, practical strategies to expand our child's palate without pressure or power struggles, and so much more. Whether you're dealing with a toddler who refuses vegetables or a child stuck in a chicken-nuggets-only phase, this episode is packed with helpful tips to make mealtimes smoother and more enjoyable for the whole family. Who is Amanda Blechman? Amanda Blechman is a registered dietitian, recipe developer, and mom of two young children who loves to combine her passions of food and family in her work. As part of the Nutrition and Scientific Affairs team at Danone North America, Amanda provides scientific guidance to support nutrition communications, outreach, and education for healthcare professionals and consumers. Amanda is also a creative cook and recipe developer, and in her free time, she enjoys sharing helpful tips on social media to make family meals less daunting for parents and caregivers. What Did We Discuss? As I mentioned, I got to chat with Amanda about picky eaters and how we can help them become adventurous eaters. Here are several of the questions that we covered in our conversation: When you hear someone say they have a picky eater, what's the first thing that goes through your mind? Why do you believe some kids are picky eaters and others are more adventurous eaters? What tips do you have for parents with kids who are picky eaters? Are there things that parents might be doing wrong that are not helping their kids with their eating? What are things parents shouldn't do? How do you feel about “letting them starve”? Some parents refuse to make another, different meal for their picky child and say, “If you're not going to eat what the family is eating, you're not going to eat at all.” What are your thoughts on this? If you disagree with it, what should parents do instead? What are some easy ways for parents to introduce and encourage new food into their child's diet? If parents could do one thing today to really help their child become a more adventurous eater, what would it be? Can you share some easy tips on creating a well-rounded lunchbox for a picky eater? What do parents not know about pediatric nutrition but need to know? Where do you see the future of pediatric nutrition heading, and what impact do you hope to have on the industry? I know all too well — and Amanda confirmed! — that conquering picky eating doesn't happen overnight. However, with patience, consistency, and these different approaches, parents can help their children build a more positive relationship with food. Amanda's expert advice reminds us that mealtimes should be about exploration, not coercion, and that small wins — like a child simply touching a new food — are steps in the right direction.

We all need to eat to survive. We assume that eating is second nature. But did you know that there are many factors that impact how a person consumes food?  We often hear the term “picky eater,” it's often just an assumption that this type of behavior goes along with childhood development. But did you know that there is more to this issue than meets the eye? I talked with Jacklyn Penderson, the CEO of Feeding Matters, about a little known disorder called Pediatric Feeding Disorder. If you haven't ever heard of this you're not alone. I have worked with many children and adolescents who I can see clearly had this issue, but we never had a good way to screen for it or truly understand it. If you have a child, or know of a family who has children that might be suffering from this little known condition, you will want to listen to this episode.  PFD is a real condition and requires early intervention in order to effectively manage it. I truly was inspired by our conversation and I think you will be too. Learn more about Feeding Matters and follow them on Instagram.
