Did you know that in the last decade, the number of 12 to 17-year olds suffering from mental health disorders has more than doubled? By the time they turn 18, as many as 50% of teens will meet the diagnostic criteria for at least one mental health disorder. What’s responsible for that increase? And what can parents do to help their teenagers who may be struggling with these issues?

For the answers to those questions and more, we turn to our guest on this episode, integrative physician Dr. Kenneth Bock, the author of an insightful new book called, Brain Inflamed: Uncovering the Hidden Causes of Anxiety, Depression, and Other Mood Disorders in Adolescents and Teens.
