In this episode of Full Focus, host Heather Morgan sits down with registered dietitian and functional medicine nutritionist Ali Miller to explore her new book, Naturally Nourished Kids. Ali shares her journey from a conventional clinical background into functional nutrition, where personal experience with autoimmune disease reshaped her philosophy on food and healing.

Together, they dive into the powerful role of nutrient-dense whole foods in raising resilient children—covering topics from chewing and jaw development to balancing blood sugar, avoiding ultra-processed “man-made” foods, and fostering positive eating habits at home. With practical parenting strategies and science-backed insights, Ali shows how families can move past perfectionism and instead model balanced, joyful relationships with real food.

This conversation offers a refreshing perspective on nourishing children—one rooted in empowerment, tradition, and lasting wellness.
