0:27 connected over the last what 4 years yeah and it's incredible to finally see you meet you and of course shoot and record with you so incredible um incredible feeling to finally meet you in person so s let's just break this into three parts right uh and three questions that we keep getting on kidstop dress and I'm sure you must be getting on on your page as well people keep asking us that you team help like like you mentioned that you know you

0:56 have PC we've seen so many and teens is a huge segment on K stess so understanding that we're seeing a lot of children especially especially a lot of girls between 13 to 18 develop PCOS pcod thyroid um pre-diabetic how do we as parents address and educate them um that this is the [Music]

1:28 ised um so how do you go about addressing D you know truthfully I don't think he lies in addressing the health bit Fit U it it lies in addressing some of the social bits of it because if you think of when we were in school if everybody's eating it and you're going to be like I'm not eating this they be like oh you're not cool it's also about social pressure peer pressure and also from what I've seen of myself my friends and

1:53 the children you need an external person to come into that school and talk because they need to hear it from someone else um they need to be able to talk about these things with someone else we work with a lot of teams and uh the parents have to be involved in terms of they have to sign out they have to know that the child is doing it but the information the child shares you will not share with the par because otherwise

2:15 how will I know if they doing something that they're not supposed to at least I can tell them hey this is not okay for you but they can't tell that they're not going to tell their parent right and that is something sort of one is to have an external source that aut of validates it and tells them how they can navigate it in that life um the second is the is not the health bit but the ability to

2:39 deal with fear and social pressure MH and that can only come if it is sort of a culture that is built in this school rather than one child you cannot expect one child to fight against yeah like people going for a movie and like everybody's eating something there's one child is not going to it's not it's too much trk yeah uh in reality because then they have to deal with you think is causing them to get this this early like

3:05 we never dealt with it it's the convenience of the foods that we have we were never allowed I mean I know that we didn't have anything on stly uh going out was very limited the kind of foods that you had available when school was different is it all it's availability it is it is food it's environment it's how we live our lives it's multiple things right um but you take step how much movement you have it is so many things

3:29 to put together and I think if it was the one thing that it would I would get children of this age to do uh maybe one thing would be physical activity through a sport or through weight training whichever both are very good for them but a sports builds Community builds multiple other things right and I know a lot of my sort of Personality comes from yeah playing a team sport um and the moment you're playing a sport you're

3:55 automatically more conscious right uh the second is for parents not to talk about it m okay so you need to lose weight this this doesn't look okay on you look a little bit this stop doesn't fit you right your stomach is taking up these are things that don't work because you want your kids to be healthy you don't want them to be self-conscious only for their body and Associate diet with iuc of each person's body is different they

4:23 might go through multiple stages in life right that you have to deal with you know how women are going to men will also yeah so those two I think really matter I think it's how the parents speak the other thing that we do with children which will be maybe not teens but it's done much lower is not to tell children or not to distinguish between good and bad foods good and junk food or to say things like oh if you eat your

4:47 vegetables then you can have dessert because then it's like saying vegetables are CH and you finish that then you get desserts no um so it's a bit about how we talk to them but I don't think with children in works or with yeah but they and interv it doesn't work with anyone bad them and say it has to be the change in sort of life right and for teens physical activity for thank you so much it was
