Are you unknowingly exposing your children to health misinformation disguised as expert advice? 80% of child health content on social media is actually paid advertising, and most parents have no idea they're being targeted.

Hannah McLane, trend analyst at Spate NYC and new mother, reveals the shocking reality behind viral parenting trends. As an expert who tracks consumer behaviour and digital trends for major brands, Hannah exposes how companies manipulate parents through social media, which "health" products are pure marketing hype, and what's actually backed by science. She shares her insider knowledge on identifying fake content, the real connection between gut health and brain development, and the exact tools she uses to vet products for her own daughter.

Dr. Murray Clarke breaks down why the microbiome is the foundation of child health, explaining how 90% of neurotransmitters are actually produced in the gut. Together, they discuss practical strategies for navigating the overwhelming world of digital health information while making evidence-based decisions for your family.

What if the secret to raising healthy, happy kids isn't perfection but embracing the beautiful mess of real parenting?

In this raw and honest episode, we sit down with Cat and Nat, the viral duo behind "Cat and Nat Unfiltered" and bestselling authors who've built a massive community by dismantling the myth of the perfect mom.

As mothers of seven kids between them, they share the unfiltered truth about parenting struggles, from breastfeeding challenges to managing screen time, and why your kids don't actually want you to be perfect.

Cat opens up about lying to her doctor about breastfeeding, the pressure of "mother's intuition," and how they learned that experience not instinct is what really guides good parenting.

We dive deep into the science of child development with insights on sleep training, nutrition myths, picky eating, and why vitamin C and omega-3s are game-changers for kids' health. Plus, they reveal their comprehensive screen time guide and why messy, authentic parenting is actually what children need most.

The conversation gets real about managing health challenges, from myositis to mast cell activation syndrome, and how trusting your gut as a parent sometimes means going against conventional medical advice. Most importantly, they remind us that your kids would choose you over and over again exactly as you are.

What if everything you thought you knew about autism rates was wrong?

In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Dr. Joel Gator Warsh, a board-certified pediatrician and epidemiologist who's been treating children for over two decades.

Dr. Joel Gator breaks down the shocking reality behind rising autism rates – from 1 in 2,500 children in 1979 to 1 in 31 today, with California seeing 1 in 12.5 boys affected.

Fresh off the recent government announcement about acetaminophen and autism risks, Dr. Joel Gator provides his balanced, science-based perspective on what parents really need to know.

He explores the environmental factors affecting our children from birth (including the startling discovery of 287 industrial chemicals in newborn umbilical cord blood), discusses his integrative approach to pediatric care, and shares practical strategies through his "SEEDS" framework – focusing on Stress, Exercise, Environment, Diet, and Sleep.

This isn't about fear-mongering – it's about empowering parents with knowledge to make informed decisions in an increasingly toxic world.

Dr. Gator's message is clear: we can't control everything, but we can control more than we think when it comes to protecting our children's health and development. LIKE this video if you found it helpful
