    In this video, I’m going to give you some tips on what to do if your child is a picky eater.
    If your child only consumes savory snacks, sugary cereals, french fries, mac and cheese, cheese sticks, frozen waffles, and packaged foods, and avoids vegetables, fish, and meats, then this video is for you!
    Picky eating is most often due to nutritional deficiencies. The best situation is to start your kids out on healthy, nutritious foods from birth to ensure no nutritional deficiencies. However, at a certain age, it is often very difficult to get your child to consume the right foods.
    A zinc deficiency is common among children. Zinc affects your child’s ability to smell and taste. Consuming refined carbs and sugars will create a zinc deficiency.
    MSG and modified food starch affect your child’s appetite. If they are consuming any of the foods I mentioned earlier, then they are likely consuming a lot of MSG and modified food starch. In turn, this increases appetite and insulin. Always avoid MSG.
    If your child is lacking DHA or vitamin B1, they are likely to have problems with their mood and behavior-especially anger.
    If a child has enough B1, they are going to be calm-they won’t feel restless, and they’ll have more self-control.
    Refined carbs and sugars can create vitamin B1 and DHA deficiency.
    You should find healthy keto substitutes for high-carb and high-sugar foods. Make the transition from unhealthy junk foods to healthy keto foods. Instead of telling your child that they can’t have those foods, find a healthy substitute.
    You can also get your child to make the recipes with you. My wife has done this with my children for many years, and this works great-they enjoy cooking healthy foods.
    It can take some time to transition to healthier food options. While you’re doing the transition, it can help to take supplements for any nutrient deficiencies. This will help rebalance their body chemistry and make it easier to come off of junk foods.

    From my experience, many moms are so scared of their kids being hungry, that the child never gets the chance to get hungry. Most parents ruin natural, physiological hunger and dis-regulate the whole cycle. Has anybody seen a picky eater in a family where food is scarce?...

      Exactly right. This is so much part of the problem. I see parents let their kids snack on cheerios and crackers etc. for fear they will go hungry if they don't let them eat when they want. Parents don't bother with a schedule and regular meals and don't allow hunger to kick in. At the slightest complaint from the child they indulge them. Also, the parents are addicted to carbs and sweets and constantly bake cookies for the kids as rewards. It's so much a part of the culture.

Just horrible people. And we don't give him chocolate or pudding, or fruit with sugar! We even limit his fruit, which is (to her) is like a vegitable :) she is awesome actually, just understanding carbs and nutrition is a bit tough.

    Teenager here, suffering the effects of picky eating and paying for it now.
    From personal experience, I know it's hard to say no to kids who want fast food all the time, but please say no. Maybe once a month is acceptable as a reward.
    Also I recommend like the video said to let your children help with cooking the meals. I learned how to cook much healthier meals and I have noticed my mood improving. I wish I had learned these skills a lot sooner.

    When I stopped eating sugar, I expected to feel better, lose fat, etc. I had not expected real food to start tasting better. I never knew that broccoli and brussel sprouts have a bit of sweetness!
    I'm thinking that sugar actually blocks our ability to enjoy real food to an extent, so that we are more interested in sugar.

    If your toddler refuses a meal, avoid fussing over it. It’s good for children to learn to listen to their bodies and use hunger as a guide. If they ate a big breakfast or lunch, for example, they may not be interested in eating much the rest of the day. It's a parent's responsibility to provide food, and the child’s decision to eat it. Pressuring kids to eat, or punishing them if they don't, can make them actively dislike foods they may otherwise like.

    • @spongemon1
      @spongemon1 3 роки тому +24

      This is irresponsible, plain stupid and borderline child abuse. Most, if not all, adults have to actually make a living or have other responsibilities than their children.
      With the advent of “iphone parenting” nowadays, kids will overlook eating. Video games and UA-cam are always more enticing than eating or sleeping. For heavens sake, there are thousands of UA-cam channels dedicated for keeping children occupied.
      Kids should learn to respect time at an early age and must be well fed since they are growing. Allowing them willy-nilly to eat whenever is irresponsible parenting.

      What? The most important thing is to give your child what it actually needs, not what it wants or think it needs. You create more problems for your child down the line if you let it do what it wants all the time.

    • @dana102083
      @dana102083 3 роки тому +8

      @@tmkongen there's a big difference between making your child finish their plate or them saying "im not hungry" then goes straight to their xbox. Lazy parenting was the whole point I saw from this comment. Having a routine and having realistic expectations around that routine are healthy, but teaching a child to stuff it in cuz its 5pm can cause disordered eating. Children shouldn't manipulate parents and need to gatekeep their screen time-- to zero if you must. Maybe spending time together is a good option and taking a time out yourself. Making guilt trips lines like "there's people in the world are starving that could use this food" is gaslighting your child. Setting boundaries to having no sugary items in the house and replacing sugar with more appropriate low sugar "treats", used with bargaining to ensure room is cleaned, dishes are done and help with meal prep..healthy. Also teaching them valuable food prep skills-- i see all to often middle aged people that dont have a clue how to cook..how is that possible? How do you expect to pass on good food practices to your kids if you never know what's in it? Everyone has a lot of work to do on themselves, but parents, it stamps their kids for life. If anything, a relationship with food should be priority, being the biggest environmental impact on our body/health. Why do we have different standards for kids than ourselves? I think a lot of kids get it easy and then do not have a lot of self discipline as an adult, as it was never practiced or taught at a young age. Maybe they want to parent their child differently than their parent but overcompensate, but its a reflection on the parenting. The adult is always responsible.

    My daughter is 4 yo and I made it a point to always place veggies on her plate with almost every meal. We also do the same, so she views it as a norm. We dont force feed.She can walk away from her plate, because we dont believe in 'cleaning your plate' but she also understands she cannot ask for anything else if she has not eaten her fruits or veggies. We leave her plate covered at the table or in the fridge until she's ready to have more. She will have the occasional kiddie foods, but we typically make from scratch, or/and with a bowl of veg.

    Already doing all of this and it’s working. My son and husband for that matter are fairly fussy eaters. It’s been a struggle to get him to eat healthy foods. He’s 16 now and I think what has really helped is that he is now taking responsibility for what he eats and how much. We haven’t got any of those foods in the house any more and if he is to have an occasional treat, it’s only once in a blue moon. I’ve substituted sugar for stevia and almond, coconut and other flour substitutes and make keto, pizza and ice cream and he’s happy enough with these substitutes.
    The only problem we are having is that nuts are banned at our school due to allergies and a lot of the recipes contain almonds.

They ate it, wasn't a choice. I always said it's this meal or no meal. It's funny, they basically do the same thing with their kids. So, it works. Food is for nutritional purposes not for experiencing fine dining.

At 2, he was "playing" with you tube (not you tube kids, we didn't know about that yet!) and started moving his hands really fast at us. When we just looked at him, I kid you not he sighed loudly, took back the phone, watched more videos and started to SPELL WITH HIS FINGERS-forming letters!! All from you tube!!! It was then that a) I figured out he had been trying to talk to us via sign language and b) we were screwed. And we are LOL he started speaking about a year ago and he is so funny!!! And, God help me Covid was the best thing that happened for him. When he would get his chance to tell his classmates what he has been morning-after they proudly showed off what they made with duplos or colored, my Grandson showed them the flag he drew and told them about the country, or about the schematic he followed, or the bones in the body, or the book he read.....after the school basically had said he was "slow"....they zoomed with him and figure he comprehends at a 3rd-4th grade level. He is more than likely vitamin deficient. But sometimes it's a texture thing. French fries are liked because they are texturally pleasing. Mashed or baked potatoes, not so much. Pasta is good, sauce hit & miss. We spirialize a lot of veggies and use it as a noodle and that seems to work, as long as the texture isnt too mushy, and he will eat spaghetti squash with me. Hes not big into red meat, but will eat chicken, and fish. Again, we watch texture, and Nana tries it first. Sometimes it's not a case of a "difficult" eater, but a set of circumstances you need to work with. That is sometimes harder!!! A picky eater outgrows it-my Mac & cheese guy says now "how could you have only let me eat that?!?!" Um, hello. Working in your parameters I had to make it myself. Usually, when you were not around. I would add ground up meat, veggies, tofu....so you got protein & veggies. I always had grapes, apples, or whatever fruit you liked in season. And you liked peanut butter which I showed you dipped into with an apple was really good--and if you heat the peanut butter, just like thick caramel!!! LOL the child is 6'4" and loves this fruits & veggies I did something right the goof. His sister is still a work in progress 😊

    I was suuuper picky as a child. but I clearly remember, that I had another reason for that. I learned from cartoons an TV in general, that children don't like vegetables. I knew that I was a child, so I adapted that behaviour. As stupid as it sounds, it is the truth. Maybe this added to deficiencies and made it all worse.

She doesn’t drink anything except water and breast milk. She doesn’t like juices or regular milk. But loves certain fruit and carrots. I have a minimal options and never thought a deficiency would be a potential cause

It’s so hard because I’ve been one meal a day for so long I just don’t think about food. 😳 This 18 month old will eat anything so that’s a good start. She loves avocados, cooked or raw vegetables, fish, all dairy and eggs. Frozen blueberries are fun too. She has most of her teeth. (Like me, she loves carrot juice too, but in moderation 😀)

    100 percent correct about the nutritional deficiency. I am a mom who had all kinds of problems growing up.... nutritional deficiencies of my own... dental cavities that got filled with mercury.... that led to root canals and infections like h-pylori and now anemia and a whole mess of other things. Unfortunately the worst part is I didn't catch on about my own health until the 3rd pregnancy!!!! So my own kids were born from a very very unhealthy mom and have autism, adhd and other health conditions... I did notice the connection with food back in 2008 but no one and I mean no one has information like Dr Berg and I only discovered him back in June 27 2022 when I was trying to get healthy myself.... don't know how I came across his content but I am so very very grateful... I only wish I had started the healing process because now I have an entire family... husband and 3 kids to heal and I feel the pressure of time ... especially with my youngest who is severely autistic and non-verbal... this SAD (standard American diet) is terrible... along with big pharma and their connections with media, government etc ... what a mess we are all in and it's thanks to content like this that we can help others prevent so much damage to their health and body.

I'm not the healthiest...have a sensory disorder that she may have too...i have autism and possible adhd so it makes it hrd to remember or focus ... not sure about her, yet ....she's been eating less and less fries thankfully but yeah. Her teeth have suffered in such a short amount of time ecwn whwn she ate more healthy foods at the time and she was breastfed at the same time for an extended time... I've still failed her so much. I'm so confused and broken. I know I have much to work on, but we've tried a lot, too. I hope things can get better for your situation...sounds like you've all been through a lot.

      Let me tell you something. When my older one started on solids he constantly ate vegetables, meat - everything. I made everything fresh for him. He loved it! He was eating broccolis with apples. Until he turned 2.5years old. Then one day to another it changed. Since then: nothing. Nothing! And no, we don’t eat crap. I still cook every day from quality ingredients - in fact, the veggies come from our own garden. And he just would not eat it. Only yesterday I offered him some plums straight from he tree... you can guess... he is 5 and a half, btw. And here’s the younger one, raised and fed the same way: give him a cucumber and he will eat it. In fact, he’s just eaten a big bowl of tomatoes. So nobody please give me this “it’s the parents’ fault” crap! Because it’s a problem and we have frikkin’ tried everything! He even helps me cook and with the recipes. And then he refuses to to eat it! 🤬

      I agree with OP. And I have aa kid. And a one who has a weight problem. And he was all that "eat vegitables and no refined sweets" in the start. He even lost a lot of weight around 3 years of age. And went to kindergarten and yup we kind of screwed that up by letting go. Getting back on track now, because weight has come back. And it's our problem, the parents problem. Not the kid's,, not no one else's. Just ours. And yes, even though he continued to eaat vegitables etc. there were sugars, some hidden, some right in the open. We just didn't have energy to control it. But again, it is our responsibility, excuses wwontt help with fixxingg thee problem.

It is exhausting trying to get him to eat a better variety of healthier food. It's like... If he knows it's something good for him, he won't eat it or even try it. I've tried everything and with this COVID-19🦠😷 semi lock down, he's gained sooo much weight just sitting at home and eating. I'm scared he's gonna develop diabetes or something even worse. I'm even more afraid of him getting COVID, cuz his weight alone puts him at a higher risk of complications or worse. 😰
