Dr Alex George opens up about living with ADHD, quitting alcohol, losing weight, and how losing his brother to suicide changed everything. In this episode of Back Your Body, Ellie Taylor talks to Dr Alex about the body he's pushed, neglected and rebuilt – from Love Island to A&E, from undiagnosed ADHD to a life built on gentle dopamine.  What does ADHD actually feel like day to day? How did Dr Alex quit drinking and lose weight? What supplements does a doctor take? This episode covers it all – plus Patielle Madaghjian (H&B Science Specialist and Registered Dietitian) delves into the science of Saffron and mood.  Want to dive deeper into the science?
