Youth Nutrition Program

Welcome to our Youth Nutrition Program, a specialized service designed to nurture the health and vitality of our younger generation. As a functional nutritionist, we're passionate about empowering children and adolescents with the knowledge and tools they need to establish healthy eating habits, support optimal growth and development, and lay the foundation for lifelong wellness.

Holistic Assessment

We begin by conducting a comprehensive assessment of your child's nutritional needs, dietary habits, lifestyle factors, growth and development milestones, and any specific health concerns or goals. This holistic evaluation allows us to tailor our approach to your child's unique needs and preferences.

Nutrient-Dense Diet

Nutrition is essential for supporting growth, development, and overall health during the formative years. We'll provide guidance on creating a nutrient-dense diet that includes a variety of whole foods rich in essential vitamins, minerals, protein, healthy fats, and fiber to fuel your child's body and brain.

Balanced Meals and Snacks

We'll help you plan balanced meals and snacks that provide a combination of macronutrients and micronutrients to support sustained energy levels, cognitive function, and physical activity. We focus on incorporating a colorful variety of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats into your child's diet.

Healthy Hydration Habits

Proper hydration is essential for overall health and well-being, especially for active children and adolescents. We'll provide guidance on encouraging healthy hydration habits and incorporating hydrating beverages such as water, herbal teas, and infused water into your child's daily routine.

Nutrition Education

We believe in the power of education to inspire healthy eating habits from a young age. We'll provide age-appropriate nutrition education to help your child understand the importance of nourishing their bodies with wholesome foods, making smart food choices, and developing a positive relationship with food.

Family Meal Planning and Cooking

Involving children in meal planning and cooking can foster a love of healthy eating and empower them to make nutritious food choices. We'll offer tips and resources for involving your child in meal preparation, grocery shopping, and cooking, creating opportunities for quality family time and culinary exploration.

Snack Smart Program

We offer a "Snack Smart" program designed to provide nutritious snack ideas and recipes that are convenient, kid-friendly, and nutrient-packed. We'll explore healthy snack options to fuel your child's busy day and support their energy levels, concentration, and overall well-being.

Growth and Development Tracking

We'll monitor your child's growth and development over time to ensure they're meeting their nutritional needs and developmental milestones. We'll provide guidance on age-appropriate portion sizes, growth charts, and other indicators of healthy growth and development.

Support for Picky Eaters

If your child is a picky eater or has specific dietary preferences or restrictions, we'll offer practical strategies and creative solutions to encourage them to try new foods, expand their palate, and develop a diverse and nutritious diet that meets their unique needs.

Community and Peer Support

We believe in the importance of community and peer support in fostering healthy habits. We'll connect you with resources, support groups, and educational opportunities that promote healthy eating and active living for children and families in your community.

What makes our plans so successful?

Remove top inflammatory culprits.

We help you remove the top inflammatory culprits in your diet and lifestyle.

We call this “clearing the muddy waters.” This step aims to reduce systemic inflammation (the cause of so many symptoms) and helps you see what is going on in your body that is unique to you. We consider this a “non-negotiable.” Without taking this step, it’s hard to go to the next level of care.

Be empowered!

Our functional nutrition programs empower you to take control of your health and nutrition by providing you with the knowledge and skills needed to make informed, sustainable choices. You'll be equipped to live a healthier life, understanding the crucial connection between diet and overall well-being.

After we clear the muddy waters, we focus on the symptoms that still remain.

We take a careful history, listening to all aspects of your story, in order to identify triggers and root causes in your past and present life. Through this process we also aim to address any deficiencies that might be getting in the way of your healing. These may be nutrient or lifestyle deficiencies.

We’re with you every step of the way!

That means partnering with you and any other providers on your healthcare team that understand the need for a collaborative approach. We ultimately believe that today’s health challenges are best served by practitioners and patients working together. You shouldn’t have to go through this alone!

Note: Our work is most successful with people who are willing to make significant changes in their diet and lifestyle in order to get better.
