Rethinking ADHD and Mental Health with Dr. Angela Cates

Rather than like it seems like in traditional medicine, they're not looking at the whole person and how all the systems work together.
Ever thought about how your gut health might be affecting your mind? In this episode of 'Kaleidoscope of Possibilities', Dr. Adriana Popescu chats with Dr. Angela Cates, a functional medicine expert, who shares her personal journey into alternative treatments for ADHD and anxiety. Driven by her son's struggles with ADHD, Dr. Cates dove deep into the world of functional medicine, uncovering how gut health, nutrient deficiencies, and inflammation play crucial roles in mental well-being.
They discuss the pitfalls of traditional ADHD diagnoses and medications, highlighting the importance of a holistic approach that looks at the whole person rather than just the symptoms. The episode also touches on the unique challenges faced by children with ADHD in standard educational settings and the need for more tailored learning environments. If you're curious about how diet, supplements, and a deeper understanding of your body's systems can influence mental health, this episode is a must-listen. Dr.
Cates' story is not just informative but also inspiring for anyone looking to explore beyond conventional mental health treatments.
