Keep’em Healthy with Jami Podcast
I’m Jami—a Biology Professor, health coach, and a mom who’s spent way too many hours researching the 'why' behind our kids' health. When the standard medical advice didn't cut it for my own family, I took my knowledge of anatomy and physiology and went looking for real, integrative answers. On Keep'em Healthy, I’m sharing that classroom with you. We’re digging into the science of nutrition and lifestyle medicine to explore how our kids actually heal and grow. It’s high-level health education, served up like a chat with your girlfriend. You’ve got this, and I’m here to help.
