One of the things I miss most about living in Canada was the spectacular autumn we'd get to experience each year. The colors were vibrant, mesmerizing, and brought so much joy. Oh to be ready to exit life with so much verve and panache! #1 What if everything we've been told about fat is completely wrong?For decades, we’ve been told that fat and cholesterol are enemies of good health, but here’s the surprise: both are crucial for brain function. In fact, cholesterol plays a vital role in building brain cells and helping your child’s brain (and yours!) grow and thrive. Healthy fats like those in eggs, avocado, butter, beef, and wild-caught fish can improve mood and focus. It’s time to stop fearing fat and cholesterol—and start feeding the brain what it needs to flourish! #2 Gut FeelingDid you know that what your child eats could be affecting not only their digestion but also their mood and behavior? The gut-brain connection is real, and studies show that kids with autism often have tummy troubles that lead to irritability and meltdowns. Foods that support gut health, like fermented veggies or meat stock, might just calm both the stomach and the mind. It’s all about nourishing from the inside out. #3 Is Sugar Sabotaging Your Child's Focus?We all know sugar can cause energy crashes, but did you know it could also be impacting your child’s ability to focus? Too much sugar can create inflammation in the brain, making it harder for kids to pay attention or stay calm. Cutting back on sugary snacks and replacing them with nutrient-dense foods might make a world of difference in their behavior and learning. #4 Ready to "Nourish to Flourish" ?If you're looking for a deeper dive into how nutrition can transform your child's health, behavior, and happiness, the Nourish to Flourish package on my website has everything you need.
