Balancing Chaos Podcast Kelley & Chad Nemiro

For years, Kelley has been searching for a holistic pediatrician for her kids, and while she doesn't live in Vegas Kelley and Chad get the pleasure of sitting down with integrative pediatrician Dr. Ana Maria Temple today on the show to learn all about the real cause of chronic health conditions in our children. Dr. Temple started her practice as a typical Western pediatric doctor, but when she began to see chronic conditions popping up with her own kids, she knew she had to make a change and better understand what was going on from a root cause perspective. Through her journey of healing her own children when it came to chronic ear infections, asthma, ADD and eczema and her travels to living in New Zeland and discovering a lifestyle that was predicated on prevention, Dr. Temple completely switched her approach to medicine where her mission is now to help families implement positive changes in their lifestyle so that they can achieve a better quality of life.
Through their conversation, Kelley, Chad and Dr. Temple discuss the impact of the changes in the food industry in America in the last 50 years on the health of America's youth. The addition of these chemicals to our food has led to various health issues in children, including neurological problems, chronic conditions like asthma, eczema, allergies, and so much more. They discuss how to create change in your children's diets for better health (even in the pickiest eaters), the connection between gut health and chronic conditions like eczema and recurrent ear infections and the importance of positive reinforcement and quality time in rewarding behavior for kids. Finally, they unpack the controversial topic of vaccines: from when is the right timing, to which ones skip, and which are important to have as our children go out into society. Tune in to learn about how to holistically support your child and create an environment for their health and wellbeing to thrive.
