Full-Tilt Parenting: Strategies, Insights, and Connection for Parents Raising Neurodivergent Children · TPP 114: Nutritionist Jennifer Scribner on Ending the "Picky Eater Battles" · 26 Jun 2018 podcast

So I feel really passionate about whatever food changes you want to make.

We all want our kids to be healthier and to have more nutrients in their diet.

Here's the steps you can take to do that, whatever clan you're choosing.

And that's the thing that people that's how it feels from the beginning.

But once you make these changes and the food time isn't a battle, or you can make one meal that your whole family eats instead of pulling out, you know, special things or special preparation for your picky kid, you actually have more time on your hands and you have more energy.

And if these changes help your kid sleep better, focus better.

um, less in, you know, tantrums, that kind of thing, that adds a lot back into your life as far as time and energy.

So for me, diet is foundational.

Of course I'm biased.

I'm a nutritional therapist, but

That's how I've seen the changes play out within my clients and the people I've worked with.

Yeah, well, those all sound like very

Yeah, so there is a phase where picky eating is common and typical, and that's usually around two to three years old.

You know, it can be considered part of the terrible twos that we talk about.

And that is where kids may like one thing one day, hate it the next day, really hyper focus on one food, refuse to try other things.

And it is a phase if we're allowing our kids to eat whole foods and we keep offering the variety of real things, where that tends to get off track is when our kids eat refined foods or more sugary things and that becomes their preference and they become addicted to this sugar cycle.

And that's where it tends to, you know, go on longer and it's considered

Chronic if it lasts more than a couple of years.

So when this is going on at four years, at ten years, at twelve years

That's about forty percent of kids that that go through that picky eating phase but then turn into chronic picky eaters.
