Send us a textFor today’s show, we’re changing gears a bit to focus on one of the most important aspects of our wellness and longevity - our kids. If you’re a parent, you probably work pretty hard to keep your children healthy. But with everything from your typical school and playground germs to some of the more serious pediatric illnesses, it can be hard to know what’s best. Because so many of our own patients have asked us how to care for their kids the natural way, we decided to do a show about it and we have some great experts to lead the way.In the studio are APRN Andrew Lauzier and Naturopathic Physician Dr. Carissa Fioritto from our practice, Collaborative Natural Health Partners in Connecticut.Andrew provides primary care across the practice and is passionate about integrative and holistic care for both adults and children. He is the dad of one little boy.Dr. Fioritto is a Naturopathic Physician who focuses her practice on digestive disorders and hormonal health including chronic fatigue, dermatologic conditions, anti-aging, and stress management. She is also a mom to two little ones.We mention a few resources during our chat that you can access right here.  EWG.org lists the dirty dozen fruits and vegetables, plus has great information on sunscreen ingredients.  HealthyChildren.org is an excellent website powered by the American Association of Pediatricians.Your Health Toolkit is a podcast created by the physicians from Collaborative Natural Health Partners (CNHP) – your go-to hub for holistic and integrated family healthcare in Connecticut and New York. At CNHP, we’ve crafted a special blend of expertise, bringing together naturopathic physicians (NPs), osteopathic medicine physicians (DOs), and Advanced Practice Registered Nurses (APRNs) to offer you a warm, integrative, patient-centered approach to health and wellness.
