    Dr. M’s SPA Newsletter Volume 16 Issue 2 – School Food
    Jan 31 2026
    School Based Nutrition - Why is it happening this way? There is a quiet experiment happening in American childhood, and we should stop pretending it’s benign. In the 1970s and 1980s, when I attended school, school food was far from perfect, but it existed in the context of something essential: it was mostly prepared on site, minimally processed (but changing in that direction) and not laden with additives and chemicals (Yet). Oh, and most children still ate meals prepared at home at almost every other occasion. Dinner wasn’t aspirational or Instagram-worthy, but it was routine. Real food. Cooked by someone who knew the child, at a table where nervous systems could downshift. School lunch was a supplement to that structure, not the metabolic foundation of a child’s life. That has all changed in a short 50 years. Mirroring the change in weight and childhood disease prevalence. • 1970s – some processed foods begin to enter school cafeterias at scale • 1980s – preservatives and additives become routine • 1990s – ultra-processed foods dominate In 1994, new standards were added: This table lays out how much of each food group schools were supposed to offer over a week under the 1994 standards. These were the first nutrition-focused meal standards the USDA put into place: For Breakfast (all grades K–12): Fruit: 2.5 cups/week Vegetables: 0 cups/week Grains/Bread: 0–10 oz equivalent/week (depending on combinations of grains and protein) Meat/Meat-alternative: 0–10 oz equivalent/week Milk: 5 cups/week For Lunch (split by grade levels): Fruit: K–3 also 2.5 cups; grades 4–12 get 3.75 cups/week Vegetables: still 0 cups/week (no separate vegetable requirement yet) Grains/Bread: at least 8 oz eq/week Meat/Meat-alternative: 7.5 oz eq/week for breakfast; 10 oz eq/week for lunch Milk: 5 cups/week (Hopkins 2015) What’s notable, reflected in the structure of this table, is that vegetables weren’t required at all yet, and the standards were very much food-group based, not ingredient-level nutrient quality checks. That created space for schools to rely on industrially produced entrées and sides that technically met volumes of grains or proteins but could still be ultra-processed products with long ingredient lists, many of these foods would meet a NOVA class 4 classification (the worst type). Think fruit cup in sugary syrup..... Dr. M

    Dr. M’s Women and Children First Podcast #105: Carrie Jones, ND – Hormone Literacy
    Jan 25 2026
    Dr. Carrie Jones, ND, MPH Hormone Literacy Welcome back to Dr. M’s Women and Children First, where we step back from symptoms and ask a more interesting question: how does the female hormonal system actually develop, adapt, and sometimes struggle across a lifetime? Today’s conversation spans that entire arc, from early life, to puberty, to fertility and more with someone who has spent more than two decades living inside that complexity. My guest is Dr. Carrie Jones, an internationally recognized speaker, consultant, author, and educator in women’s health and hormones. Many know her as the “Queen of Hormones,” but what really defines her work is not titles, it’s her ability to translate very complex endocrinology into biology that actually makes sense. Dr. Jones is a naturopathic physician who completed a two-year residency focused on women’s health and endocrinology. She holds a Master of Public Health, was one of the very first clinicians to become board certified through the American Board of Naturopathic Endocrinology, and is a Menopause Society Certified Practitioner. She helped shape how an entire generation of clinicians think about hormone testing and interpretation as the first Medical Director at Precision Analytical, the creators of the DUTCH test, and later as the first Head of Medical Education at Rupa Health. She’s served on Under Armour’s Human Performance Council, consulted for multiple women’s health and laboratory companies, and now serves as Chief Medical Officer at NuEthix Formulations. Many of you will recognize her voice from the Root Cause Medicine Podcast, which reached more than ten million downloads, and she now hosts her own show, Hello, Hormones, where she continues to explore how hormones shape mood, metabolism, immunity, fertility, and aging. But what makes today’s conversation especially important is this: we’re not just talking about menopause, or cycles, or lab values. We’re asking a bigger question. How have female hormones changed across generations? How early life nutrition, stress, environment, and metabolic health shape the hormonal story from birth forward. And how modern exposures, from ultra-processed diets to endocrine-disrupting chemicals, may be quietly rewriting the biology of women long before symptoms ever appear. This is a systems-level conversation about development, resilience, and adaptation, and few people are better equipped to guide us through it than Dr. Carrie Jones.

    Dr. M’s SPA Newsletter Volume 16 Issue 1 – Beyond Behaviors Part 3, Mona Delahooke, PhD
    Jan 19 2026
    Screenshot Chapter 3 - Individual Differences Dr. Delahooke starts Chapter 3 by allowing Margaret Mead to remind us that each child is absolutely unique: “Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.” This is more than a witty paradox, it is the hinge upon which all effective pediatric care swings. When we take individual differences seriously as neurobiological fact, we can finally stop confusing adaptive survival responses with defiance, stop labeling children as problems, and begin the real work of supporting the mind body systems that shape behavior from the inside out. Let us review what we have learned in Beyond Behaviors so far - We are invited to descend below the waterline of the behavioral iceberg. What we see at the surface: the tantrum, withdrawal, rigidity, hyperactivity, the refusal to transition is merely a set of observable outputs from deeply personal internal variables. The sensory wiring, physiological states, immune triggers, thoughts, feelings, memories, and the child’s moment-to-moment sense of safety. Without diving into these subterranean layers, we risk treating smoke while ignoring the fire, which is the general state of current pediatric psychiatric medical therapeutics. We mostly treat the smoke. We don’t often ask about the fire. Her central thesis is simple, clinically robust, and profoundly humane: Children behave according to the state of their nervous system, and their nervous system is shaped by individual biological, emotional, and sensory differences. Once we understand this, behavior becomes not a moral test but a window into the child’s internal world..... Dr. M
