Episode Ep. 60: Back-To-School: The Secret to Healthy Kids Starts Here
In this back-to-school episode of Grounded Wellness, Bethany sits down with Hilary Boynton— chef, author, GAPS Certified Coach, mom of five and the founder of School of Lunch — to unpack what's really being served to kids at school and how parents can build a stronger foundation for their children's health through real, nutrient-dense food.
Hilary shares how her own family's health challenges led her to rethink everything she knew about nutrition and eventually transform a school lunch program from the ground up. Together, Bethany and Hilary explore the impact ultra-processed foods and blood sugar spikes can have on kids, why traditional and ancestral foods are disappearing from our diets, and what can happen when we return to simpler ways of nourishing our families.
They also get practical on what to feed kids for more stable, sustained energy, Hilary's favorite foods for supporting kids during back-to-school season, what to do with picky eaters, and why family dinner doesn't need to be complicated to be nourishing.
This conversation is a reminder that raising healthy kids doesn't require perfect meals or complicated recipes. It starts with rebuilding our connection to real food, teaching kids where their food comes from, and giving them a foundation they can return to for the rest of their lives.
