Dr. Tony Ebel tackles one of the most-asked questions on the podcast: when is it actually time to start supplements for your child? Using his Four Phase Healing Model as a framework, he explains why supplements can't do their job in a dysregulated nervous system, why he no longer recommends starting probiotics right away, and how to sequence supplementation safely once your child's nervous system is in a ready state. He also shares his own family's supplement routine, the story behind his endorsement of Kingdom Health Sciences, and a step-by-step guide for starting supplements — for both kids and parents.
