Ep 4: Childhood Obesity- What’s Actually Causing It (and What Parents Can Do Today)

Childhood obesity isn’t just about “eating less and moving more.”

In this episode, Jen + Danielle (clinical pediatric dietitians) explain what’s actually driving childhood obesity today—ultra-processed foods, screen time, stress/sleep, emotional eating, portion habits, and family routines—and what parents can realistically change starting now.

You’ll hear practical strategies for after-school hunger, fast food cycles, cravings, reducing ultra-processed snacks, and building a sustainable “whole family” lifestyle (without extreme rules or shame). One change at a time, done consistently.
