What do our kids actually eat &mdash; and is it as healthy as we think? This week on The Nutrition Couch, we unpack brand new research showing that 81% of snacks marketed to children are ultra-processed, raising major concerns about how packaging, peer pressure, and manipulative marketing are shaping kids&rsquo; diets. Leanne and Susie share practical advice for parents, including the best snack brands that pass the dietitian test. Then &mdash; the creatine gummy scandal you need to know about. A wave of independent testing reveals that most popular gummy brands contain only a fraction of the creatine they claim, with some delivering as little as 16%. We break down why it&rsquo;s happening, why the science matters, and what to look for in a legitimate creatine supplement. We also dive into the surprisingly heated debate over broccoli stalks (do you eat them or snap them off?), and Susie shares her thoughts on a new product she&rsquo;s loving: Riverina Dairy&rsquo;s high-protein feta, which delivers 12g of protein per serve with a clean ingredient list. And in our listener question of the week: &ldquo;I&rsquo;ve just been diagnosed with osteopenia &mdash; what should I do next?&rdquo; We explore the key nutrients, lifestyle changes, and exercise strategies to help strengthen your bones and reduce future risk. Whether you&rsquo;re a parent, a supplement user, or just someone trying to eat better without the overwhelm &mdash; this episode will leave you informed and empowered.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
