  • Episode 247: 3 Simple Ways I Add Nutrition to My Family’s Diet (Without Adding Veggies)
    Feb 8 2026

    Simple Ways to Boost Kids’ Nutrition (Even If Veggies Are a Struggle)

    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re diving into a refreshingly practical conversation about nutrition especially for families who feel stuck when it comes to vegetables.

    Inspired by a moment in the kitchen, this episode explores simple, realistic ways to add more nourishment to your family’s meals without battles, pressure, or forcing extra greens onto the plate. Whether you have toddlers, school-aged kids, or teenagers who are increasingly eating outside the home, these ideas are designed to make everyday meals more nourishing even for picky eaters.

    In this episode, we explore:

    • Why adding nutrition doesn’t always mean adding more vegetables and what can have an even bigger nutritional impact
    • How certain everyday foods can support brain development, immunity, and gut health
    • Why some nutrient-dense choices can be more effective than simply increasing portion sizes
    • Practical ways to enhance meals without overwhelming kids or creating food stress

    🎧 Tune in to learn how small shifts in the kitchen can add meaningful nutrition to your family’s diet without turning mealtimes into a struggle or relying on foods your kids already refuse to eat.

  • Episode 246: Why Some Kids React: Real Stories of Eczema, Allergies & What Helped
    Feb 1 2026

    Eczema and Allergies in Kids: Why Reactions Keep Happening

    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re continuing our eczema and allergies series with a deeply grounding episode that brings everything we’ve been discussing into real life.

    Instead of theory or quick fixes, this conversation walks through three real stories of children with eczema and allergies — each with a very different picture, but a shared theme: symptoms weren’t the full story. These families had tried creams, antihistamines, food elimination, and constant management, yet still felt stuck and overwhelmed.

    We also share how looking beyond symptoms and into gut health, immune regulation, and individual drivers helped shift the picture in meaningful, lasting ways without extreme restriction or fear-based approaches.

    In this episode, we explore:

    • Why children with eczema and allergies can look completely different on the surface, yet share common patterns of immune dysregulation
    • How histamine intolerance, gut microbiome imbalance, and reduced immune tolerance can quietly drive ongoing flare-ups
    • Why removing trigger foods or allergens alone is often not enough and how repeated food elimination can sometimes increase reactivity over time
    • What changes when the question shifts from “What is my child reacting to?” to “Why is their immune system reacting this way?”

    🎧 Tune in to hear how addressing gut health and immune balance helped real children experience calmer skin, fewer reactions, and a better quality of life and why there may be more options available than you’ve been led to believe.

  • Episode 245: Could Food Elimination Be Making Your Child’s Eczema or Allergies Worse?
    Jan 25 2026

    Food Elimination Diets for Kids: When They Help and When They Make Eczema Worse

    When your child’s eczema or allergies flare, it’s natural to start scanning the plate. Dairy goes first. Then gluten. Then eggs. Then anything that feels even remotely suspicious. And yet… the flare-ups keep coming.

    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re continuing our Eczema and Allergies Series by taking a closer look at food elimination — not from a place of blame, but from a place of understanding. We explore why cutting more and more foods can sometimes leave families feeling stuck, stressed, and confused, and why food isn’t always the real issue driving ongoing reactions.

    In this episode, we unpack:

    Why food elimination feels like the most logical first step when eczema or allergies show up and why it often becomes unsustainable.
    How repeated restriction can quietly impact gut health, nutrient intake, and immune balance over time.
    The difference between avoiding a true allergy and navigating food sensitivities with a longer-term plan.
    What to focus on instead when your goal is calmer skin, fewer reactions, and a more resilient immune system.

    🎧 Tune in to understand why eczema and allergies are rarely “just about food,” and how shifting your focus from constant elimination to internal support can help your child’s body respond more calmly, now and in the future.
