If you've seen headlines about glucose monitors now being available for children as young as two, you may be wondering if they're something your family needs.
In this episode of Family in Focus, I unpack what the FDA's recent decision actually means, why more health data isn't always better, and how constant monitoring can unintentionally affect a child's relationship with food, their body, and the people who care for them.
In this episode:
• What FDA clearance does and doesn't mean
• Why glucose monitors may not benefit healthy children
• How health monitoring can increase food and body anxiety
• The link between orthorexia and the pursuit of perfect health
• Why connection matters more than numbers
