The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast NLP648 - The Mental Health Supplement Stack
In this episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast (formerly The Key Nutrition Podcast), Craig and I dive into the growing conversation around ADHD diagnosis. Craig, a licensed clinical therapist, has worked with countless individuals diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, and through his experience, he’s discovered that not everyone who receives this diagnosis truly has it. Before jumping to labels and medication, he believes in first addressing key health and wellness factors that can play a massive role in focus, attention, and overall mental health.
We also break down a powerful mental health supplement stack that can help support cognitive function, mood, and focus—things that everyone, diagnosed or not, can benefit from. If you’ve ever wondered whether you (or someone you know) really have ADHD or if other lifestyle and nutrition factors are at play, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
At the end of the episode, I also share an exciting new case study I’m running with a group of dads looking to get in great shape while balancing the challenges of fatherhood, partnership, and life. If you’re a dad who wants to level up physically without sacrificing the things that matter most, stay tuned!
