What a Holistic Pediatrician Wishes You Knew About Your Kids' Health w/ Dr. Ana Maria Temple

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Anna Maria Temple for a conversation every parent needs to hear. We talk about what’s really going on beneath the surface when it comes to kids’ health—and how symptoms like eczema may be pointing to much deeper root causes. Here are a few of my biggest takeaways from our conversation: 1. Glyphosate exposure and children’s health We talk about glyphosate, a common herbicide found in many conventional foods, and why reducing exposure matters—especially for kids. Dr. Temple shares how environmental toxins like this can impact development and long-term health, including concerns around inflammation and chronic conditions. Choosing more whole, organic foods can be a simple but powerful step for families. 2. Eczema is not just a skin issue Eczema isn’t just something to manage with creams and topical treatments. It’s often a signal that something deeper is going on in the body—like inflammation, gut imbalance, or nutrient deficiencies. We discuss why it’s so important to look at the full picture, including diet and possible lab testing when symptoms persist. 3. The connection between eczema and other conditions We also talk about the patterns Dr. Temple sees in practice, including links between eczema, ADHD, and other immune-related challenges. This conversation is such an eye-opener for any parent who’s trying to better understand what their child’s body is communicating. My hope is that it helps you feel empowered to ask better questions and look deeper when something doesn’t feel right. Tune in now and share this one with a friend who needs to hear it.
