In this episode, Fi chats with Hilarie Geurink, the founder of Blended Tube Feeding - a paediatric dietician and passionate advocate for real food blends. Hilarie has supported hundreds of families worldwide in making the switch to blended diets, helping them navigate medical resistance, build confidence, and simplify the process of nourishing their tube-fed children.
We explore the benefits of blended diets, debunk common myths, and highlight practical tools to make the journey feel less overwhelming.
