The Rise of Mental Health Challenges in Teens Due to Social Media

Detrimental Impact of Social Media and Smartphones on Youth Mental Health

Students' Self-Perception on Social Media Addiction
Teenagers express feeling dependent on their phones, with rates of mood disorders climbing since the early 2010s. The addictive nature of smartphones and social media usage contributes to increased levels of depression and anxiety.
Benefit of Spiritual Practices in Countering Social Media's Negative Effects on Children's Mental Health
Research findings suggest that children from families with active spiritual practices demonstrate resilience against the negative impacts of social media and smartphones. Cultivating a strong spiritual foundation appears to offer a protective buffer against the mental health challenges exacerbated by digital technology.
Approaching Health Recovery Through Comprehensive Protocols
Deanna has navigated a challenging health journey, addressing issues like low hormone levels, leaky gut, and nutrient deficiencies through various protocols.

Exercise Progress and Patience in Healing
Despite setbacks, Deanna has maintained a consistent exercise routine, gradually increasing intensity. She feels stronger and observes muscle tone improvements, highlighting gradual progress. Starting with MAP Starter or MAP15 could complement her healing journey, ensuring a balanced approach to strength training while prioritizing recovery.
Navigating Low Calorie Intake and Patient Recovery

Following Dr. Cabral's guidance on meal timing, spacing, and early eating cessation is crucial for healing. While adjusting to these constraints, focusing on recovery first will pave the way for caloric readjustment and muscle gain in the future.
