Description:

In this episode, Dr. Kharrazian dives into childhood developmental disorders, with a special focus on dyslexia and processing challenges. Learn why children struggle with reading, writing, or social interaction and how sensory and motor coordination issues are linked to brain development.


The conversation breaks down the different types of developmental disorders, from learning and sensory processing to motor skills, psychological health, and communication abilities. Dr. Kharrazian will clarify what dyslexia really is and explore its genetic roots, signs, symptoms, and why early diagnosis is critical. 


You’ll also hear insights on sensory processing disorders, motor tics, behavioral challenges, and how functional medicine can support children—and adults—facing these challenges by optimizing brain health and development.
