Hear from parents about picky eater success stories

The school just kept sending me notes complaining that my son refuses to ‘cooperate at mealtimes’. Decided to give Vitalxchange a try….signed up for three separate sessions to understand my son’s sensitivities and also learn new sensory friendly recipes. He is eating much better …and no notes for a few weeks now!

Picky eating success stories

Mealtime was a messy battle, every time. I started out with one consultation sesson and it turns out my son had certain sensory sensitivities and gut reactions I was not aware of. This was eye-opening. Now I am able to ensure he is getting proper nutrition and know when to back off vs. losing my mind forcing him to eat!

We know first hand how important it is for parents to get feeding right

“I had no idea that my kids had specific sensory issues like aversion to certain textures (like peas) or tummy discomfort due to certain foods. Knowing this information helped me pick my battles and focus on practical eating rather than perfect eating. Also, learning the correlation between sugary colored foods to attention deficit and focus has been immensely useful for managing behaviors” – Charu

“I tried to do my own research into solutions for my picky eater. So many top 10 lists, general solutions, and research studies. I don’t have time to do all that research and needed a solution specific to my son. I received some tips and tricks to expose him to new foods and its made all the difference!” – Ketal

We have met so many parents who struggle with picky or problem eaters and have not been able to find experts that can help them. Having the right approach to nutrition is so foundational to our children’s health – the earlier we address nutrition issues, the better it is for our children’s future health.

That is why we founded a network like Vitalxchange – so that parents are enabled to discover solutions for themselves and help their children lead healthy lives.
