Dr Gator unpacks WHAT YOU can DO for this Children & Teenager Health Crisis

This one is about the kids, and it’s sad to say – the kid’s are not alright. Just 50 years ago, chronic disease in children and teens was a rarity. Now it’s the norm. I know things are bad, I talk about it and see it everyday, but when my guest today told me between 40% and 60% of American kids and teens have at least one chronic disease I was stopped in my tracks. We need to do something now to stop this unfolding catastrophe, and that is exactly what integrative paediatrician Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh is doing.

Dr. Joel “Gator” Warsh is a respected integrative paediatrician known for his holistic approach to children’s health, combining conventional medicine with natural therapies. He advocates for preventative care, focusing on nutrition, lifestyle, and environmental factors to support overall wellness in his young patients. Dr. Warsh is also a prominent speaker and educator, dedicated to empowering parents with evidence-based tools for raising healthy children.
