    Episode 264: From Developmental Delays To The Best Reader In His Class - Matthew's Story

    07/06/2026 | 46 mins.
    From Developmental Delays to Thriving: Matthew’s Gut Health and Learning Journey
    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re sharing an incredibly honest and hopeful conversation with parents Ann and Ben about their son Matthew’s health journey. From developmental delays, emotional outbursts, digestive issues, sleep struggles and sensory challenges, through to becoming a calm, connected, thriving child who is now one of the best readers in his class.
    We chat with Ann and Ben about the many pieces that helped support Matthew’s progress, including gut health, nutrition, microbiome testing, nervous system support and a more holistic approach to children’s health.
    In this episode we explore:
    How early signs like colic, reflux, speech delays, aggression, poor sleep and frequent illness were impacting Matthew and the whole family
    Why trusting parental instincts matters when concerns are dismissed as “normal” developmental differences
    The role of gut health, gluten and dairy sensitivities, low-tox living and practitioner-grade supplements in supporting behaviour, digestion, and emotional regulation
    How therapies focused on the nervous system, primitive reflex integration and the gut-brain connection helped improve coordination, learning, communication, and self-regulation
    🎧 Tune in to hear Matthew’s inspiring story, the practical changes that made the biggest difference for this family, and a powerful reminder that children can thrive when we look beyond isolated symptoms and support the body as a whole.

    Episode 263: Most Microbiome Tests for Kids Are Being Misinterpreted — Here’s What Parents Need To Know

    31/05/2026 | 27 mins.
    How to Interpret Paediatric Microbiome Testing Correctly (and What Most Parents Aren’t Told)
    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re talking about one of the biggest issues we are seeing in children’s health right now, the misinterpretation of paediatric microbiome testing.
    With more families turning to gut microbiome testing to understand eczema, allergies, digestive symptoms, immune issues, and overall health, it’s becoming increasingly important for parents to understand that children’s microbiome results cannot be interpreted the same way as adults’.
    We share key insights from a recent paediatric microbiome mentoring program with Dr Brad Leech. During this, Dr Brad explained the common mistakes that can lead to unnecessary supplementation, restrictive diets, and incorrect “leaky gut” diagnoses in children, which we wanted to share with you today.
    In this episode, we explore:
    Why most microbiome tests for kids use adult reference ranges that may not apply to children
    The truth about zonulin, secretory IgA, and microbiome diversity scores in kids under 12
    Why a child’s age, diet, breastfeeding history, and immune development matter when interpreting results
    How the right practitioner and the right testing technology can make a huge difference in getting useful, accurate information
    🎧 Tune in to learn why low microbiome diversity is not always a bad thing in young children, why some gut test results may be misunderstood, and how to approach paediatric microbiome testing in a more informed and balanced way.

    Episode 262: Why Most Kids with Eczema and Allergies Don’t Get Better (And The 3 Things We Do Differently)

    24/05/2026 | 27 mins.
    Why Some Kids With Eczema and Allergies Stay Stuck in a Cycle of Flare-Ups
    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re talking about why so many children with eczema and allergies stay stuck in a cycle of flare-ups, food reactions, congestion, poor sleep, and constant symptom management, even after trying creams, elimination diets, supplements, and allergy testing.
    We share the 3 biggest differences in the Natural Super Kids approach to eczema and allergies, and why looking at the bigger immune picture can make such a difference for long-term results.
    In this episode, we explore:
    Why eczema and allergies are often treated as separate problems instead of connected immune system issues
    What standard allergy testing can miss when it comes to histamine, sensitivities, and immune dysregulation
    The gut-skin-immune connection and how gut health can influence eczema, congestion, inflammation, and food reactions
    Why individualised, realistic support works better than restrictive diets and overwhelming protocols
    🎧Tune in to learn more about the deeper drivers behind eczema and allergies, why many children don’t improve with symptom-focused approaches alone, and how a more holistic, sustainable strategy can support your child’s skin, gut, immune system, sleep, and overall wellbeing.

    Why eczema can look the same on the outside but have completely different root causes internally

    How a holistic, personalised approach can lead to real, long-term improvements

    Episode 260: Your child is vomiting hours after eating - could it be FPIES, not gastro or reflux?

    10/05/2026 | 21 mins.
    FPIES Symptoms in Babies: Why Vomiting Hours After Eating Isn’t Just Gastro or Reflux
    This week on the Natural Super Kids Podcast, we’re talking about FPIES (Food Protein-Induced Enterocolitis Syndrome) a lesser-known type of food allergy that doesn’t look like a typical allergic reaction.
    Instead of immediate symptoms like hives or swelling, FPIES often shows up as delayed, intense vomiting hours after eating, which is why it’s so commonly mistaken for gastro, reflux, or a random illness. For many parents, this leads to a long and confusing journey before getting real answers.
    In this episode, we explore:
    Why your child may be vomiting hours after eating (and why it’s often missed)
    The key signs it could be FPIES, not gastro or reflux
    Why allergy tests come back normal, even when reactions are severe
    The most common trigger foods and how to start identifying patterns
    🎧 Tune in to better understand what FPIES actually is, how to recognise the patterns, and how to feel more confident navigating your child’s symptoms, diagnosis, and next steps with the right support.
