About

Hi listeners!
 In today’s episode, we’re talking about something most parents have never been told — how early our relationship with sugar is actually formed.

Long before children choose candy on their own, their brains are already being wired for sweetness. In fact, research shows taste preferences can begin in utero, and the modern food environment only accelerates that conditioning once kids are born.

We’ll unpack:

    How early sugar exposure shapes taste preferences and cravingsWhy we’re seeing type 2 diabetes diagnosed at shockingly young ages (as young as 3)What this means for parents trying to do their best in a processed-food worldPractical, realistic steps you can take without becoming extreme or obsessive

This isn’t about blame or fear. It’s about awareness, stewardship, and giving your family a better foundation in a culture stacked against them.

Ready to take control of your health and stop settling for “managed” diabetes?
 Grab your earbuds and listen in.
