This Week on The Health Hub…What to Feed Baby & Toddler with Dr. Nicole Avena

Dr. Nicole Avena is a research neuroscientist and expert in the fields of nutrition, diet and addiction. She is a pioneer in the field of food addiction, and it was her seminal research work that jump started this exciting new field of exploration in medicine and nutrition. She is also an expert in diet during pregnancy, and childhood nutrition. Dr. Avena has blogs on Psychology Today and The Huffington Post, and she regularly appears on television, including Hallmark Channel, The Dr. Oz Show, The Doctors and Good Day New York. Her new book, “What to Feed Your Baby and Toddler” covers nutrition for babies who are just beginning to eat, and offers science-based advice and practical tips on how to get your baby to eat healthy foods. She is also the author of “What to Eat When You’re Pregnant” and coauthor of “Why Diets Fail”.

Learning Points:

  • Does mom’s diet during pregnancy set the stage for infant development?  
  • Does brain development affect our food choices?
  • What can parents do to ensure their kids are eating healthy diets?

After working as a neurobiology researcher with Dr. Robert Sapolsky, Ph.D. and completing her studies at Stanford University, Yale Medical School, and the NYU Psychiatry Residency Training Program, Dr. Yusim felt that something was missing from her life. In her quest to find it, she traveled, lived and worked in over 50 countries, while studying Kabbalah, learning Buddhist meditation, and working with South American shamans and Indian gurus. She lives in Manhattan with her husband.

 

Pamela Tinkham, LCSW, C-IAYT, SEP, is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Certified Yoga Therapist and a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner.  She is the author of Healing Trauma from the Inside Out: Practices from the East and West and she presents herself as a Yoga-Psychotherapist.  She holds a Master’s degree in Social Work from Fordham University where she graduated with honors and now has an adjunct teaching position, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Dance from Butler University.

She was certified as a Reiki Master in 2010.  Pamela is licensed in Connecticut, New York, and Idaho and treats adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, relationship issues and trauma.  She has a private practice in Stamford, CT and also works remotely via Skype, FaceTime and Zoom.

 

 Learning Points

  • What is missing in Western medicine that prevents us from healing?
  • Where are we limited in our scientific understanding of the mind?
  • What keeps us from harnessing our true power?
