Description

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kristine Profeta Gedroic, MD—a physician whose work bridges functional and integrative medicine—to explore some of the most urgent questions parents face today. We dive deep into the role of epigenetics and the microbiome in shaping children’s health, and why nutrition in the earliest years of life can have lasting effects across generations.

Dr. Profeta also shares her perspective on how parents can handle pushback from family and friends when raising kids differently, weighs in on the debate over genetics and autism, and offers her take on combination vaccines. Together, we examine the concerning rise in childhood cancer and discuss how our environment and lifestyle choices may be driving these trends.
