Last updated Sep 18, 20266-year-old Emma had her annual checkup.
Her mom Sarah expected nothing unusual.
Instead, she got a punch to the gut.
"Emma shows signs of serious nutrient deficiency," Dr. Pam explained.
"She's low in vitamin C and vitamin D and missing key micronutrients."
The news was devastating. Emma wasn't skinny or sickly-looking.
She ate regularly - chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, and grilled cheese were her favorites.
How could she be malnourished?
"That’s when I learned about a ‘silent pandemic’ called Hidden Hunger," Sarah recalls.
"Emma looked healthy. But inside, she was starving for real nutrition."

A Silent Crisis for 47 Million Americans
A Silent Crisis for
47 Million Americans
Dr. Pam is board-certified in internal medicine. For over 12 years, she’s studied nutrition.
She says Sarah's story is far from unique.
"Hidden Hunger is a ‘silent pandemic’ because it’s more widespread than we think.
“Over 47 million Americans have ‘food insecurity’.
“That is, no consistent access to enough food for an active, healthy life,” Dr. Pam explains.
“No doubt, they’re suffering from Hidden Hunger.
“But Hidden Hunger is not about a lack of access,” she continues.
“Plenty of ‘food secure’ Americans have disturbingly low levels of essential nutrients, especially micronutrients.
“These are people who get plenty of calories.
“Yet, Hidden Hunger is wrecking their lives, too.
“That’s why I’m certain way more than 47 million Americans have Hidden Hunger."
The statistics are alarming:
"Malnutrition doesn't always look skinny," stresses Dr. Pam.
"In fact, some of the most undernourished children I see are overweight.
“But let me be clear: it’s not just destroying kids’ lives…
"Hidden Hunger threatens the health of millions of adults, too.
"So it’s a family problem, not a kid problem."
Why Modern Americans Are Starving in a Land of Plenty
The problem isn't lack of food.
It's lack of nutrition in the food we eat.
"Modern farming practices have stripped nutrients from our soil," explains Dr. Pam.
"Today, you need to eat 8 oranges to get the same nutrition as a single orange 50 years ago."
That's on top of the busy reality of modern family life:
Processed snacks - Fast food meals
- Daily battles to eat anything green
"As a parent, you aren't failing your kids," Dr. Pam stresses.
"The food system is failing them... and you.
“Even if you try to provide your family with healthy options, it’s an uphill battle.
"In addition to bad soil, there's supply chain chaos and foods engineered for shelf-life, not nutrition."
Hidden Signs Most Parents (and Doctors) Miss
Hidden Hunger isn’t obvious.
Instead, the symptoms disguise themselves as common childhood issues.
Ones that most parents, and many doctors, dismiss as "normal":
Mood and behavior swings: It's hard to control emotions and behavior without good nutrition.
Difficulty focusing: The brain needs specific nutrients to function well.
Frequent illness: Kids with nutrient deficiencies get sick more and recover slower.
Energy crashes: That 3pm meltdown isn't tiredness. It's a sign of blood sugar instability from poor nutrition.
Sleep problems: Many nutrients play crucial roles in sleep regulation and quality.
Gut health issues: Show as frequent tummy aches, food sensitivities, or constipation.
"I thought Emma's issues were just a normal part of growing up," Sarah says.
"The afternoon meltdowns, the trouble sleeping, constant colds...
"I never connected it to what she was eating."
Superfood Gamechanger
After seeing thousands of families struggle with Hidden Hunger, Dr. Pam took action.
She tried a variety of supplements. And recommended her patients take various others.
Almost nothing worked.
Or if something did work, patients stopped because they hated the taste.
Eventually, it got to Dr. Pam. She started questioning herself.
She wondered if she had gone down the wrong path.
Just as she thinking about a change...
She met someone. An unexpected ally: Anastasia Radzinskaya.
She's better known to her nearly 400 million fans as Nastya, star of the top YouTube children’s series Like Nastya.
By chance, Nastya had learned about Hidden Hunger.
Once she heard its dangers, she immediately knew she had to do something to help.
"Some of the Like Nastya family might be suffering," she realized.
So Nastya co-founded a family supplement brand called Yumzy.
Yumzy is the maker of YOMZ, a mouthwatering gummy backed by science to fill the nutrition gaps facing millions of Americans every day.
Then Nastya partnered with Dr. Pam, who is the medical advisor of this breakthrough family-focused gummy.
Dr. Pam explains. "First, it had to taste amazing - like a treat kids would actually ask for.
“Otherwise, no one would want it.”
"But we also refused to compromise on nutrition. So we added the power of 18 superfoods:
“Vitamins, antioxidants, micronutrients, and 5g of fiber.
“All the while keeping amazing taste as our #1 goal.
“No artificial colors. No fake flavors. No junk.
"Just pure, bioavailable nutrients in a form kids love."
She laughs. “And adults, too!”
That’s because YOMZ OG Gummies come in 3 juicy flavors: Peachy, Strawbeary, and Berry Beary.
If you like your lips to pucker, there’s also the tangy YOMZ Sour form in those same 3 flavors.
Each serving of YOMZ Gummies has the phytonutrient equal of 2 servings of fruits and vegetables.
It's also packed with polyphenols, probiotics, postbiotics, and other gut-supporting ingredients.

"Now I know whatever she eats during the day, YOMZ Gummies are giving her what her body needs to grow and thrive."

Yumzy's mission is to end Hidden Hunger for 100 million people.

"But we can change that.
"We have the knowledge and tools. Now we have a tasty gummy to do just that - help everyone...
"Especially those who need it most."
