In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Rebecca Berens to talk about healthy eating in teens. Dr. Berens is a family physician, lactation specialist, and owner of Vida Family Medicine in Houston, Texas. She serves patients from newborns to the elderly, focusing on both the physical and mental well-being of each family member with a trauma-informed and weight-inclusive approach to care.

Both Dr. Berens and I see patients who are being treated for pre-diabetes, diabetes, PCOS, and other diagnoses that are heavily influenced by diet, so in this episode we address the role that healthy eating plays in the lives of teens. We discuss some of the biggest challenges that teens face when it comes to healthy eating, such as eating disorders and offer some ways in which parents can help their children build the foundation for a healthy life.

If you'd like to see what Dr. Berens is up to or schedule an appointment with her, you can reach her via the Vida Family Medicine website or by phone at 713-766-4496, or you can check out her Instagram and TikTok.
