FAQs

Will my child need to follow a restrictive diet?

No. Our approach focuses on building healthy eating skills and adding nutrient-rich foods rather than imposing restrictive eating patterns or food elimination.

What about weight loss medication?

Medication can be considered on a case-by-case basis through shared decision-making when lifestyle interventions have been optimized and specific clinical criteria are met.
