And what's it about? 88% of adults in the US were found metabolically unfit in a study out of UNC. Just because people are thin does not mean they are metabolically healthy. Starting kids on healthy, not super sugary food is an incredibly important place to start. Try to create some simple principles for your kid. It can be hard because kids naturally want junk food and their friends will likely have it. Just make sure they eat healthily while they're around you, but don't make food a punishment or reward or anything like that. FAT DOC IS OUT Go watch it now!
