What if the food you put on your child's plate could shape their brain for life? In this transformative episode of The First Seven Years, we're joined by Tana Amen, BSN, RN, a registered nurse, neuroscience nutrition expert, and bestselling author of "The Omni Diet," "The Brain Warrior's Way," and "Relentless Courage of a Scared Child."

We reveal the shocking statistics behind childhood disorders—with autism rates jumping from 1 in 500 to 1 in 36, and ADHD increasing by 300-500% in just 30-40 years.

Tana's personal journey from childhood trauma to helping thousands of families optimize their children's brain development makes this episode both deeply personal and scientifically grounded. She shares practical strategies for busy parents, from grocery store treasure hunts to making nutrition fun rather than a battle.
