48- Dr. Teresa Purzner, neurosurgeon, best nutrients for a developing brain

Dr. Teresa Purzner is a mother of three, practicing neurosurgeon,
developmental neurobiologist and the Co-Founder of Cerebelly. While studying at Stanford, Purzner led the development of a new treatment for the most common type of infant brain cancer which is currently in human clinical trial and through this, found that
various regions of the brain grow and peak at different times — each having their own nutrient needs to give children the best possible start in life.

In 2019, Purzner developed Cerebelly which is the first and only
baby food brand on the market that combines up-to-date early childhood nutrition with developmental neuroscience to provide veggie-first, science backed food with brain-supporting superior ingredients. Purzner ensures that Cerebelly employs robust processes
to ensure the highest possible quality for all its products, and is the first ever shelf-stable children’s food brand to receive The Clean Label Project Purity Award, an honor only bestowed after products are tested for over 400 contaminants and heavy metals
and meet the organization’s highest standard. In addition to Purzner’s medical accolades, she has been recognized as a Bio-X and SIGF Fellow, as well as a SPARK Scholar.

In today’s episode, Dr. Purzner teaches about the relationship
between nutrients in our food and children’s brain development. She shares the importance of nourishing foods, and teaches what to look for, and avoid, when feeding your children.
