Every parent knows it’s not always easy getting kids to eat healthy, especially since we can’t be with them every second of the day. But teaching children early on about the benefits of good nutrition is one of the most important things we as parents can do to help them grow into healthy adults, and the good news? It may not be as hard as you think!

On tomorrow’s Poop Scoop I’ll be talking with Dr. Tara Garlitz about simple and effective ways to helps kids make smart choices when it comes to food. Tara is a mom of three who’s been working with children and families for more than 10 years to help them understand the important connection between diet, digestive health and overall wellness, including the role of good bacteria in the gut and why daily probiotics are a must. So parents—don’t miss out on this valuable advice!

I’m so excited! Last week was the first-ever episode of my new online talk show, Brenda’s Poop Scoop, and it was a huge success! My first guest was Katie, my good friend and personal trainer. Katie had been having problems with her health and was feeling tired and worn out all the time… so tired that she would want to go home and nap right in the middle of her work day—“Katie”, I said “It’s in your gut!”

I helped Katie understand that the cause of her chronic fatigue was an unhealthy, unbalanced digestive system, and pretty soon she was making important changes to get her gut health back on track. What a difference it made! If you missed show, be sure to listen to the archive at http://www.voiceamerica.com/voiceamerica/vshow.aspx?sid=1670 and hear how Katie’s doing today. And you can see Katie’s story on my new webisode series, just click on the media room on my website at http://www.brendawatson.com/media-room/ .

Brenda’s Poop Scoop airs LIVE every Wednesday from 4-5 pm (EST), and on tomorrow’s show I’ll be talking with child psychologist Tara Garlitz, M.A. about how the food your children eat could be affecting their mood and behavior. We’ll talk about how new research links everyday nutrition to behavioral disorders such as ADD, ADHD, autism and Asperger’s Syndrome, and learn the important nutrients kids need to do well in school and develop socially. So if you have children or know someone who does, you’ll definitely want to tune in!
