Join us as we talk with Flip Shelton. When it comes to kids' mood, energy, focus and success at school, one of the most influential factors is diet. And a hugely important part of what kids and teenagers eat and drink every day happens between meals: mid-morning, after school, when they finish a sports game, at the beach. A smart snack will boost them with nutrients and slow-release energy, whereas a processed snack or soft drink can cause a spike in their blood sugar, throwing out their mood and concentration. Poor snack choices can also have longer-term effects on their physical and mental wellbeing.

Flip Shelton is a writer, presenter, broadcaster, natural muesli maker and mum. She has written for The New Daily and her third cookbook, co-authored with Michael Carr-Gregg, Smart Snacks, was published by Penguin and released in February 2019. For the last twenty years, Flip has been, and continues to be a passionate student of yoga and balances this with her new love - cross-fit!
