#26 – Nutrition & Kids – A parent's perspective (Kelly LeVeque & Ben Grynol)

For parents, feeding kids a balanced diet can feel like an uphill battle. People are surrounded by fast, convenient and highly processed food items, which can make the idea of 'meal time' easier to get through. But, these short-term choices can have long term health implications – especially for children.

When kids are provided with the right foundation for the way to think about food and the choices in front of them, it can be easier to start them down the right path at an early age.

Kelly LeVeque – nutritionist, author, podcaster, and an investor in Levels – takes the time to set a healthy foundation for her children. And, by 'controlling the controllable' – what she chooses to expose them to – getting her kids to eat a balanced diet is part of their routine.
