Is your kid dealing with eczema, gut issues, or those mystery symptoms no one can seem to explain?
If so, get ready to learn A LOT, as I’m joined by functional nutritionist Deidre Bloomquist—founder of Always Growing Wellness and mom on a mission. After her son faced some serious health hurdles, she dove headfirst into the world of functional nutrition to figure out what was really going on—and now she helps other parents do the same.
We’re talking all things gut health, toxin exposure, and what’s really behind symptoms like eczema, chronic rashes, and more. Deidre breaks down the role of hidden pathogens, how toxins impact our kids (even before they’re born), and how testing like the GI Map and Total Toxin Burden can finally give you answers.
You’ll also get real-world tips on:
- Making healthy food kid-friendly (yes, it’s possible)
- Blood sugar balance and why it matters more than you think
- Detoxing kids safely (and what not to do)
- Supporting your child’s skin from the inside and outside
Deidre brings clarity, compassion, and actionable advice every parent should hear.
