Meet Calc Carb

“She Just Wants to Stay Close to Me” – The Calc Carb Child 👧

She hides behind mum. Takes her time. Watches first.

“She just prefers being at home.”

Calc carb kids feel safest in the familiar. They can be shy - they don’t rush in. They warm slowly.

• Shy, cautious, slow to warm

• Loves routine

• Overwhelmed by new environments

• Stubborn when pushed

Clinically, this shows up as:

• Slow development (teething, crawling, walking, speech)

• Cravings for eggs, sweets… even indigestible things (dirt, chalk, sand)

• Nightmares (monsters, worms)

• Enlarged tonsils and adenoids

• Chilly child, yet profuse sweating (often wets the pillow)

• Skin eruptions (eczema, psoriasis, boils, allergies)

• Fatigue, slow movement, low stamina

The Quiet Achiever – The Calc Carb Adult 👩

She’s the one holding everything together.

Routine keeps her grounded. Control makes her feel safe. But underneath… she’s tired.

• Prone to anxiety and overthinking

• Worries about responsibilities and duties

• Overwhelmed but keeps going

• Stays in her comfort zone. Typically a homebody.

Clinically, this shows up as:

• Hormone imbalance, heavy periods, fibroids

• Weight gain, sluggish metabolism

• Digestive issues (bloating, reflux, sour belching)

• Slow bowels, large stools

• Fatigue and shortness of breath

• Chilly, often with profuse perspiration (may have night sweats)

• Skin issues and glandular swelling

Doing it all… but running on empty
