Kids & Pediatric Nutrition

Nourishing your child
from the roots up.

Personalized functional nutrition for children from infancy through school age — using HTMA to uncover exactly what your child's body needs to grow, focus, and thrive.

"Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it."

Proverbs 22:6
Picky Eating Slow Growth Nutrient Deficiencies Digestive Issues Focus & Behavior Low Immunity Gut Health

The Approach

More than a meal plan — a map of what your child needs

Every child is different. What shows up as picky eating in one child is a zinc deficiency in another. What looks like low energy might be iron, magnesium, or a gut imbalance. Conventional nutrition advice offers the same guidance to every child — I don't.

Using Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis (HTMA) as the foundation of every package, I build a clear picture of your child's mineral status and use that to guide every recommendation. Concrete, personalized, and based on what's actually happening in their body.

  • HTMA included in every package
  • Functional assessment of mineral balance
  • Gut health and digestive support
  • Strategies parents can actually implement
  • Faith-rooted, whole-family perspective

Why HTMA?

Seeing what standard labs can't show you

A standard pediatric blood panel checks a handful of nutrients at a single point in time. Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis gives us a 3-month window into your child's intracellular mineral status — revealing patterns that explain symptoms standard labs may miss.

Mineral Balance
Calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium ratios driving energy, mood, focus, and immunity
Heavy Metal Burden
Lead, mercury, and aluminum accumulation that can affect development, behavior, and learning
Metabolic Patterns
Whether your child is a fast or slow oxidizer — which directly informs what foods and supplements will work best
Non-Invasive
Just a small hair sample — no blood draw, no needles, no stress. Results in 2–3 weeks.
