🎉Practitioners — let’s reimagine pediatrics together!

The 5th annual A4M Pediatrics Reimagined: The Future of Pediatric Medicine Summit is happening September 17–19, 2026 & I would LOVE to see you there.

As Chair for A4M Pediatrics, I have the honor of creating THE pediatric functional medicine conference I wish I had when I was starting out as an integrative pediatrician — and the conference I want you to have now.

Reimagine what pediatric care can look like — for chronic inflammation, the microbiome, toxins, immune dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction, PANS/PANDAS, autism, eczema, metabolic health, vagus nerve dysregulation &whole-child resilience.

My goal for this conference is simple. Not just theory, not just research — but practical, clinically useful tools &protocols you can bring back to your patients on Monday.

And most importantly, you’ll find your people — like-minded pediatric practitioners who want to help end this unacceptable tide of childhood chronic disease & help children thrive from the inside out.

👉Register here [LINK IN BIO]: https://www.a4m.com/pediatrics-reimagined-2026.html
or comment CONFERENCE and I’ll send you the link.
👉Use code SONG200 for $200 off registration.

Here’s our amazing lineup of fantastic speakers:
✨ Microbiome, immunometabolism, Lyme, mold & mitochondria: Chris Magryta,
✨ Toxins, screens & stress: , ,
✨ Autism, neurodevelopment & mental health: Elizabeth Mumpe,
✨ Autoimmunity, eczema & allergic disease:
✨ Vagus nerve and neurolongevity: .ebonicornish
✨ Methylation, metabolism, genomics & vaccines: Sharon Hausman-Cohen .aricalhoun

✨ And I’ll be teaching you “The biology of resilience: how the microbiome, neuroception, and the cell danger response shape pediatric health”

👉Share with any pediatric practitioner you know. Hope to see you in Nashville! 💛

P.S. There’s a special dinner meetup for HKHK Practitioner members - more coming soon!

In case you’re wondering, Pepsi Prebiotic Cola is NOT good for your gut microbiome.

I’m seeing a disturbing trend among children and teens. More and more believe:
🥤 soda can replace real prebiotics
💪 protein shakes and bars can replace meals
🥬 greens gummies can replace vegetables

Wellness-washing is teaching our kids that soda, bars, shakes, and gummies can replace real food.

And this deceptive marketing is not new.

Back in 2007, Coca-Cola launched Diet Coke Plus — fortified with vitamins and minerals and marketed as a “better” soda choice. The FDA stepped in and warned that adding nutrients to carbonated beverages could mislead consumers into believing they were healthy dietary choices.

Now it’s happening again — this time with gut health buzzwords.

Here’s what worries me most:
1️⃣ Many of these “healthified” products still contain too much added sugar, artificial sweeteners, artificial flavors, emulsifiers, and ultra-processed additives that can negatively impact kids’ health and gut microbiomes.
2️⃣ They teach our kids that nutrition can be engineered in a factory instead of nourished through real food.

Prebiotics added to soda are NOT the same as eating:
🫐raspberries
🫘 lentils & beans
🧄 garlic & onions
🥣 oats
🍌 green bananas
🥦 asparagus

✨ REAL food delivers fiber alongside vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytonutrients, healthy fats, amino acids, enzymes, and cofactors that work TOGETHER, synergistically to nourish the gut microbiome, brain, immune system, and metabolism.

You can’t isolate one nutrient, drop it into a package, and expect the same effect. The same goes for:
➡️ protein shakes vs real meals
➡️ greens gummies vs vegetables
➡️ fortified snacks vs whole foods

Supplements should SUPPLEMENT a healthy diet — not replace one.

That’s exactly why I teach the foundations of Food as Medicine for your gut microbiome in my book, Healthy Kids, Happy Kids. And why I created Microbiome Magic™: to help fill nutritional and microbiome gaps in today’s world while we continue building a strong foundation of real food habits for our kids.

Because the goal isn’t to raise kids who can “hack” nutrition with processed products.

The goal is to raise kids who understand what REAL nourishment looks like.

The Lancet just officially renamed PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) to PMOS (polyendocrine metabolic ovarian syndrome) — and here’s what it means for our teenage daughters.

For 90 years, we’ve been calling it the wrong name. This week, that changed. 14 years of global consensus. 56 organizations. 14,360 patient and clinician voices. And one truth so obvious it almost didn’t make it to print:

This was never just an o***y problem. It’s a multi-system problem.

Most teenage girls get missed.
✨75% of lean teens with PMOS have insulin resistance — even with a “normal” BMI. They’re the girls being told their irregular cycles are “stress” or their acne will “pass.” They deserve so much more.

And at the root, lies the gut microbiome.
✨ The microbiome sits at the root of nearly every PMOS driver. Insulin resistance. Androgens. Inflammation. Mood.

🎉The good news? Most root causes of PMOS are modifiable.

👉Swipe through for the evidence-backed interventions I recommend for my teenage patients — food, inositol, sleep, movement, stress and mental health support, and reducing microbiome-disrupting chemicals (yes — endocrine disruptors are also microbiome disruptors. That’s why they have negative effects far beyond hormones).

👉Save and send this to a mom or teen in need. Share with your pediatrician.

This is the new paradigm. This is how our teenage daughters become empowered to make the choices that help them thrive!

📚For the foundational microbiome science behind everything in this carousel — including the framework I use with every patient — see my book Healthy Kids, Happy Kids. Link in Bio or comment “BOOK” below and I’ll DM you the link.

💩And in case you’re wondering how to know if your daughter’s microbiome needs support, .health is the ONLY gut microbiome test I recommend for all ages. (Disclosure: I believe in Tiny Health so much that I am proud to serve as Chief Medical Officer).

Knowledge is power.

🥰This is my best friend Keir.

💔She died by su***de when she was 28, after losing her battle with depression and anorexia-bulimia. She would have been 56 today.

I always wonder what more I could have done for Keir. I wish I knew then what I know now about the gut-brain connection, and the power of the microbiome and Vagus Nerve to heal. I wish I knew then about the nutritional deficiencies that make anorexia-bulimia one of the most difficult mental health disorders to treat.

I wish I knew then to ask her the tough questions.

This weighs heavily on my heart, knowing that today, 1 in 3 teenage girls has seriously thought of su***de. I watch my beautiful 16 year old daughter laughing with her gaggle of friends, and think - it could be one of them …

So today, and every day, I want to dispell the most common myth about su***de.

➡️What’s the #1 Myth about su***de?
That if you ask someone about su***de, you’ll make them want to do it.

❌Asking about suicidality does NOT increase suicidal ideation.
✅Asking whether your loved one is thinking about su***de, or has a plan, can help reduce the stigma that su***de must remain an unspoken word.
✅Asking the question can help them rethink their opinions and options, and seek the help they desperately need.
✅Asking the question can relieve them of the heavy burden of hopelessness they are keeping silently to themselves.

⁉️So ask the question!
If you know someone who is hurting - reach out to them.
Ask them, “Are you OK? How can I help?”
And if YOU are hurting - please, reach out for help.

🙏Call or text 988 or chat 988lifeline.org to reach the 24/7 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline (https://988lifeline.org/)

❤️May is Mental Health Awareness.
Let’s raise awareness together so that no one else has to ask what more they could have done …

The future of medicine is connection.

In a world of AI, wearables, and direct-to-consumer testing, we can lose sight of the fact that medicine is both a science, and an art, that requires human connection.

Only a human heart and eyes can capture the nuance of personalized precision medicine that is possible when you have a trusted practitioner by your side. Dr. AI has its place, but should not be where your healthcare starts and ends.

That’s why I am so honored to be a part of ‘s Fullscript Forward, on Friday, May 8, for practitioners - to learn from 20 trusted leaders in modern medicine what you should know about healthspan, clinical innovations, and patient care.

Sessions are streamed live from 12-4pm ET. Here’s a taste of what you’ll hear:
✅Health exposome: Reducing toxic load with
✅Urolithin A and mitochondrial health with Dr. Anurag Singh of
✅Pediatrics & ADHD with Dr. Matt Hand
✅Restorative sleep in practice: Using wearables to personalize care with and
✅Less paperwork, more patient work: Use AI to automate manual work and find more time to deliver care with
✅And more!

👉And be sure to join me at 11:45am PT/2:45pm ET where I will share with practitioners how to approach children’s attention, mood, and behavior through the lens of the pediatric gut-brain axis — and what that means for how we actually help them. We’ll cover:
✨Why kids’ microbiomes are fundamentally different from adult microbiomes (and why using adult reference ranges on kids’ labs will mislead you)
✨How gut dysbiosis, metabolic endotoxemia, and nutrient insufficiency drive neuropsychiatric symptoms
✨A precision Gut ReSET protocol integrating nutrition, targeted supplementation, and vagal support — grounded in a clinical story that makes the framework concrete.

🎉 2.5 years ago, I stood on a stage with a giant p**p emoji plush and pitched a children’s microbiome supplement that didn’t exist yet.

What happened next was everything.

I won a Brass Ring at the 2023 Mindshare Summit — from both .virgin and . Two of the most respected people in our industry told me that this was the product children’s health was missing.

So I went home and got to work — driven by one mission: to educate parents and practitioners about the power of children’s microbiomes to create lifelong resilience.

Along the way:
💛I published my USA Today bestselling book Healthy Kids, Happy Kids with .
💛 I joined .health as Chief Medical Officer to help build the world’s gold standard in microbiome testing for children and adults.
💛 I was honored as the 2024 Trusted Authority in Children’s Integrative Health.

After 3 years of formulating, sourcing, testing, reformulating, taste-testing on my own kids, and pouring everything I’ve learned in 20+ years as an integrative pediatrician — it’s here!

Microbiome Magic™ is the first pediatrician-formulated, all-in-one daily essential designed to fill the 5 gaps in nearly every child’s diet:
