The latest pandemic and the question of whether or not to send kids back to school for in-person instruction, has cast a sharp light on the subject of a child’s immune system.
In today’s episode, we will take a deep dive into how our guts evolve in early childhood, why children are often better at fighting illness than their adult counterparts, and what happens when kids miss out on necessary exposure to the outside world.
We will also discuss how to hone in on whether your child is suffering from SIBO, candida or another gut issue, how the diet and treatment options differ from adults, and the biggest lifestyle changes you can implement early for SIBO prevention.
Joining me is Tasneem Bhatia MD, also known as Dr. Taz. She is board certified in integrative medicine and pediatrics, the founder and CEO of CentreSpringMD in Atlanta, and a former adjunct professor of integrative medicine at Emory University. She is also the author of the fantastic book Super Woman Rx and host of the podcast Super Woman Wellness.
