The Mediterranean diet is all the rage right now but is it healthy for our kids? This week we break down the Mediterranean diet, its benefits, if it is safe for your child, and some of the most important things to consider if you do choose to make the switch for your child. During this week’s product review of "Keto Coconut Clusters" Jen explains net carbs and sugar alcohols.
