Dr. Chheda – 🌱 At the heart of holistic pediatric care, we treat the child as a whole – holistic, not just a tummy, not just a tantrum. We want to make sure we’re treating the entire child.
And that means with nutrition, we also have to make sure that it is completely nourishing their body and their nervous system – not just calories, not just food groups.
For example, you need fats for brain development. You need iron and zinc for growth and immunity. You need protein for cellular repair. You need fiber and water for gut digestion.
So we need to make sure that all the nutrients are available for your toddler to eat.
