The Luxford Method Kids
NUTRITION COACHING FOR KIDS
A 6-week parent and child team approach to nutrition counseling focusing on gut health and beyond
All you want as a parent is to make sure your child has what they need to be healthy. You want to shield them from physical pain and suffering. You’ve been told that the foundation of health is only as good as one’s diet. But you don’t know where to start. And, you don’t know what to say to get your child to change her dietary behaviors. What does she need? What will help him feel his best? How do I teach her these important food principles?
Each child is unique in their needs and food preferences. There is no one size fits all model when it comes to diet and child. You need someone to help you get to the root of your child’s tummy aches. You need someone to help you navigate the noise of what is “good” or “healthy” nutrition. You need someone to give you daily skills to encourage balanced eating and food choices that promote a pain free tummy and a happy and healthy kiddo. You need a partner to help you determine what your child truly needs when it comes to food.
If you can relate to any of these statements, you’ve come to the right place. Welcome to The Luxford Method Kids, an integrative and functional approach to your child’s gut health.
As a result of The Luxford Method Kids, YOU will
Improve your child’s health at your convenience via telehealth
