#40 - Dr Kyla | Feeding Kids Without Losing Your Mind


Listen Later

Paediatric dietitian, fussy-eating specialist and founder of Mealtimes, Dr Kyla joins us for a refreshingly honest conversation about feeding kids in a world full ofconflicting advice. From food pyramids and ultra-processed panic to sugar myths and supermarket psychology, we unpack what the science actually says — and why nutrition has become so confusing for parents.


We dive into the big debates dominating parenting forums right now: baby-led weaning vs spoon feeding, whether sugar really causes kids to go wild, and the growing fear around “processed foods.” Dr Kyla explains why nutrition isn’t as black-and-white as social media makes it seem, and why balance, flexibility and context matter far more than rigid food rules.


Most importantly, we talk about the parental guilt surrounding kids’ food — and why it might be the most harmful ingredient of all. This episode is a reassuring reminder that feeding your kids doesn’t have to be perfect, and that shared meals, variety and a relaxed approach to food go a long way.
