Pediatrician for Childhood Obesity

Childhood obesity is a growing concern in the United States, with increasing numbers of children at risk of developing chronic health problems like Type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol. As a parent, you play a vital role in shaping your child's eating habits and promoting healthy choices. Research shows that children's eating behaviors are formed early, often at the family dinner table, and traditional phrases like "Finish your veggies to get dessert" can inadvertently create a divide between "good" and "bad" foods. That's why we offer pediatric recipes through the Fussy to Foodie Collective. These recipes include foods that are nutrient-rich, kid-friendly, easy to prepare, and variety-focused, to support healthy eating habits and combat childhood obesity. By exploring our recipes, you can help your child develop a positive relationship with food and support a lifetime of healthy eating habits.

Fussy to Foodie Collective

The Fussy to Foodie™ Collective is a curated community founded by a pediatrician and chef, tailored for families desiring more consistent, developmentally informed support regarding food.



Within the Collective, taste literacy and pediatric culinary medicine intersect in ways that mirror real life and evolve in harmony with a child's growth.
