Mark's Daily Apple Thursday, March 3, 2022 11:55 AM Ask a Health Coach: How to Transition Kids to a Primal Diet       Hey folks, Board-Certified Health Coach Erin Power is here to answer your questions about how to get your kids to eat healthier. Whether you have teens in the house or are just starting your baby on solids, you'll learn actionable tips on transitioning your family from a Standard American Diet to a Primally aligned one. Got a question you'd like to ask our health coaches? Leave it below in the comments or over in the Mark's Daily Apple Facebook group.   Angela asked: "What's the best way to transition my carb and sugar-loving teenagers to paleo? I've been eating this way for a while, but I think it's finally time my kids started eating like this too." By the time your kids can buy their own food, it's harder to get them to follow your food rules. That being said, my guess is you're still the one bringing home the groceries and making the meals. Which means you're still in charge when it comes to (the majority of) what goes in their mouths. Is Paleo Good for Teens? Teens can benefit from a paleo diet as much as you and I can. Even more so as teens' nutrient needs are higher during this stage than nearly any other time of their life. Not only that, issues like acne, irritable bowel, and ADHD can be reversed and corrected through improving diet and gut health. You did the best you could to feed your kids as they were growing, and now that you know differently about food, you want to do differently. That's awesome. The thing is, if your teens spent much of their childhood consuming packaged and overly processed, hyper-palatable food, opting for real food like ribeyes and roasted broccoli might not be their first choice. At least not right away. But you don't have to change their diet overnight. Think back to when you started eating this way. You probably weren't excited about leaving your low-fat yogurt-and-banana routine behind. Or having a square or two of dark chocolate for a special treat instead of a big ol' frosted cupcake. What was the first thing you did? What is the most sensible first step for your teens? The Adolescent Mindset Your teens have a routine that they're comfortable with. Whether it's what they buy at school, what they eat at friends' houses, or what they expect to see when they stand there loitering in front of the open fridge. They're also at the age when they're trying to figure out who they are and how they fit into the world around them. Combine that with hormonal changes, school and social pressures, and the detrimental effects of diet culture, and you're lucky to get them to even look at a nutrient-dense meal. The key is to make dietary changes that don't feel like a punishment and don't push your teens too far out of their comfort zones. During adolescence, they're making psychological and social changes that help them become more responsible and … Continue reading "Ask a Health Coach: How to Transition Kids to a Primal Diet" The post Ask a Health Coach: How to Transition Kids to a Primal Diet appeared first on Mark's Daily Apple.
