And flavor is for kids, too, and having fun with flavor is one way I’ve found to motivate my patients to make great dietary changes that last.

Read more about kids’ tastes and how to use flavor – and that can mean spices – to both improve  their diets and make them happier about the foods they eat, in my Huffington Post article.
