In this episode of The Evolution of Medicine Podcast, I sit down with Emily Rydbom ( @growbabyhealth ) to explore how nutrition, systems biology, and integrated care models are reshaping maternal and infant health outcomes.
Emily shares how the Grow Baby initiative is redefining prenatal care through a “standard of care plus” approach that combines nutrition, biomarkers, and clinical integration.
In this episode, learn:
• Why nutrition in preconception and pregnancy impacts long-term outcomes
• How a “standard of care plus” model improves rates of preterm birth and metabolic complications
• The role of biomarkers in identifying nutritional insufficiencies early
• Why the future of maternal health depends on prevention, not reaction
This conversation explores how medicine is evolving to adapt to a world defined by nutrient insufficiencies—and how prevention could reshape the next generation of healthcare.
