Listen on:
23 mins 8 secs
January 24

It is no longer a question of if you have health issues, it’s a matter of how many you have, how severe they are, and how you’re being treated. Children are not exempt from this category as illness can strike at any age. But not all prescriptions are safe and healthy for children to use. 

Dr. Ana-Maria Temple, also known as The Eczema Lady, talks to Jen about how her children’s chronic illness prompted a lifestyle revamp and dietary changes. Together, they discuss healing illness through real food, top products to avoid, and the role that community plays when making drastic changes.

In this episode, Dr. Temple talks to Jen about the challenges of becoming healthier and how to overcome them. Sustaining momentum in your health journey can be achieved by building community and developing a positive mindset.
