If you’ve ever felt confused or overwhelmed trying to support your child’s mood or mental health—this conversation is for you! 

Today we’re diving into a topic that hits home for so many parents and caregivers—kids’ mental and emotional health. Did you know that 1 in 5 children in the U.S. alone have been diagnosed with a mental, emotional, or behavioral disorder? So what’s really going on beneath the surface? And how can we support our kids naturally—beyond just symptom management?

My guest today is Jess Sherman, a functional nutritionist and author who specializes in children’s brain health and resilience. 

We talk about:

🌻 How amino acids can offer a natural alternative for mood and behavior support in kids
🌻 Which natural nutrients Jess uses for anxious, angry or stressed kids
🌻 All of the hope, solutions and answers that functional medicine is bringing to kids with mental or behavioral struggles
🌻 Resources for overwhelmed parents
