In this episode of Revolution Health Radio (RHR) we discuss “RHR: What Nutrients Do Kids Need to Thrive?." A Paleo-type diet is a great option for adults, but what about children? Will it provide everything they need to thrive? Today I discuss the specific nutritional needs of kids and how a Paleo diet can meet those needs. I’ll also talk about the American habit of providing “special” meals for kids—kids’ menus at restaurants, kids’ breakfast cereals, etc.—and how these are not only unnecessary but also unhealthy.

In this episode, we cover:

Do kids need different food from adults?
The nutrients kids need most
Ways to monitor your children’s nutrition
