In this episode, Brandon breaks down why kids and teens drift sooner today (food systems, screens, stress, sleep loss), what to watch for across ages (infants→teens), and how to respond without panic or pressure. You’ll learn how the gut–immune loop, mitochondria, circadian cues, and the nervous system interact—and how small inputs (light, meal timing, fiber/butyrate, sleep windows, calm connection) can flip biology back into regulation.
