Nobody Hands You the Manual.

The supermarket aisle is designed to solve problems your child probably doesn't have. Meanwhile the things that matter most — iron, vitamin D, sleep, protein at breakfast, whether the table is a battleground — get very little airtime.

This seminar covers what growing bodies genuinely need at each stage, and which gaps are common enough in Central Europe to be worth checking: vitamin D through winter, iron in toddlers and menstruating teens, iodine, B12 in plant-based households. We look at what a fortified snack bar actually delivers versus what its packaging implies.

Then the part parents ask about most: picky eating. Why pressure backfires, what the division-of-responsibility model does differently, how long a new food usually takes to be accepted, and when fussiness stops being a phase and becomes a paediatric question.

We also cover sleep, screens and movement — because none of this is a nutrition problem alone. And we do it without turning food into a moral category. Children who grow up hearing food described as clean or dirty carry that vocabulary a long way.
