You have big dreams for your child. You can already envision the photo album of successes: a fulfilling career, a happy family, and a life well-lived. You’re always on the lookout for ways to nurture your child’s desires and abilities.
If your daughter shows interest in working with animals, you might encourage her to volunteer at the local animal shelter. If your son shows interest in guitar, you will probably sign him up for lessons.
Practice makes perfect, and we all know that children learn best when they start young.
The same is true for teaching about nutrition. The earlier in life children learn how to make wise food choices, the earlier they will start on the path toward vibrant health and a fulfilling life free of disease. This used to be the norm.
Now the norm is for a child to be diagnosed with an “adult-onset” disease before the age of ten. The number of children who live with a chronic medical condition continues to increase. Kids today are being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, obesity, asthma, chronic digestive problems, and many other life-altering illnesses at an alarming rate before they even reach their teen years.
I’m sure the dreams you have for your child do not include the devastating consequences of long-term illness. If you want to give your child the tools to excel in health, you’ve come to the right place! Even if your child has been diagnosed with a chronic disease, it’s not to late to recover health.
You have the power to give your child the gift of health, for life!
It starts right now, at your dining table, with the food you feed your family every day.

Hi, I’m Shari Gilford
I’m on a mission to transform the health of an entire generation of children. Will you join me?
My dream is that every child would be healthy and strong throughout childhood and into adulthood, and even into their 80s and 90s. That should be normal, yet statistics show that obesity, diabetes, asthma, mental health problems, and other medical conditions are rising exponentially among children.
I’m sure you don’t want your child to end up as one of these statistics.
There is an answer. As children learn how the body works, they will understand why foods can either strengthen or harm their body. This knowledge will equip them to choose foods which support health. And better yet, they will enjoy eating foods that make them feel good!
Full Table Nutrition exists to educate and inspire adults and children to enjoy fresh, whole foods which nourish us for life. I wish for all of us to have a positive relationship with food and to eat with delight. A full table is a picture of abundance and joy. It’s delicious at the table!
As a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, I would love to inspire you and your family on your path toward excellent health!
