Holistic Health with Dr. Heather Heck: Healthier Halloween Candy

Dr. Heather Heck Season 1 Episode 33

Do you have health + wellness questions? Don't worry; I've got you! Text me.

I know organic Reese’s are out there, but today I have an expert taste test panel to help us discover some of the good, better, and best options out there when it comes to healthier candy and treats for kids. What I'm sharing with you today features simple ingredients, and some options are even made with organic or grass-fed ingredients that I’m excited to try. 


I love when Flynn starts taste-testing and he compares some of the flavors to whole foods like fruit that he likes. ;-)  And his facial expressions when he’s trying some of these options are priceless! My kids don’t get a lot of candy… and it’s probably evident in the short recording of this episode as my little boy becomes more and more antsy and energetic!


I have some fun-size granola bars, Halloween-type treats, cookies, and even functional lollipops that can help you and your family this Halloween and throughout the holiday season.
