In this episode of Vitality Made Simple, Dr. Paula Kruppstadt opens up about her deeply personal journey from being a traditionally trained pediatrician to becoming a functional medicine expert. After struggling with depression, obesity, and a lack of answers from conventional medicine, she turned to precision genetics and functional approaches that not only healed her but reshaped her entire philosophy of care.

Dr. Kruppstadt also unpacks the dramatic rise in childhood disorders like ADHD, autism, and chronic inflammation, attributing much of it to environmental toxicity, excessive vaccinations, and poor nutrition. She highlights the power of parents to change their children’s health trajectory, starting in the kitchen. With actionable tips on avoiding inflammatory foods, understanding genetic predispositions, and choosing the right supplements, this episode is an inspiring roadmap for families seeking clarity, hope, and real healing. Dr. Kruppstadt shares moving stories of transformation, including non-verbal children beginning to speak again, showcasing what’s possible when we look beyond symptoms and treat the root cause.
