Episode #94 - Lindsey Jean On Tackling ADD, Diet And Medication

Guest Lindsey Jean is with us today to discuss the effects of prescription medication and diet on conditions such as ADD, and how over-medicating can be dangerous to health and cause serious complications. Is our tendency to give out pills to children putting their health at risk, and are there better ways to manage conditions that affect concentration and behavior? Lindsey tells us about her own experiences as a child with hyperactive tendencies, under-encouraged at school and at home, and written off as 'hard to handle' and 'naughty'. Used to a diet of processed food and take-outs coupled with the sedative medications prescribed by doctors, she eventually found herself with liver failure from the pills and battling excess weight from her diet. Making changes in her lifestyle one step at a time, Lindsey has been able to overcome those hurdles and get herself back to peak health. We discuss how people can be distracted from their goals and how commitment is the key. Technology can also be greatly beneficial - make sure to read up on the information available and search for answers to your own health queries. Don't be afraid to challenge your doctor if something isn't working out for you, and always aim to be the CEO of your own health.
