QUESTIONS I ASK DR. CARROLL IN THE EPISODE:

• You say you’re dedicated to “helping children achieve their best health” and that you accomplish that by “working exclusively with parents who are willing to focus on modifying their own behaviors.” How does your approach differ from the typical medical approach? How is a parent focusing on their own behavior helpful for the child?
• When you talk about modifying behaviors, are you mostly referring to diet? Or movement, sleep, and stress/anxiety, as well?
• What if a child doesn’t want to change at all (like a teenager)? Can a parent still help them?
• Some parents don’t have the greatest lifestyle habits themselves. What happens then?
