About this episode

On The Sofa with British Mums - Episode 17 with Dr Teizeem Dhanji from Sage Clinics

This week, Emma and I are joined by the lovely Dr Teizeem Dhanji, a Consultant Child & Adolescent Psychiatrist & Eating Disorders Specialist, to discuss picky eating, when to start worrying, and when to seek help.

All of us recognise ‘fussy eating’ in ourselves, family members or friends. While this can be a normal part of development for some children, it can also signal a deeper issue.

The key takeaways from this week’s episode are that you are definitely not alone, there is plenty of support available, and it's crucial to seek help early.
