About this listen
Is your baby really hungry—or just hooked on ultra-processed foods?
Kate Mason sits down with children’s nutritionist and author Mandy Sacher to unravel the tangled world of feeding babies and toddlers.
From decoding misleading food labels to tackling fussy eating head-on, Mandy shares her powerful journey, from developing childhood obesity programs with UK hospitals to launching Australia's first real food rating system.
She opens up about how her own child’s love of broccoli sparked a national movement for better children's nutrition.
Together, Kate and Mandy tackle the myths, the fears, and the everyday realities of starting solids, avoiding food-related anxiety, and raising resilient eaters in an ultra-processed world.
