On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared addresses Illinois' new mandate requiring annual mental health screenings for students in grades 3–12. While it's being framed as a step forward for children's well-being, Jared unpacks the hidden ties to pharmaceutical interests, the flawed screening tools linked to Pfizer, and the real risk of funneling kids toward lifelong prescriptions of SSRIs and other psychotropic drugs. You'll learn why the “chemical imbalance” theory of depression has been debunked, how placebo often performs as well as antidepressants in studies, and the dangers of medicating developing brains. Jared also shares his wife Jen's powerful journey of breaking free from decades on antidepressants through nutrition, gut healing, and root-cause support. This episode challenges the narrative that more medication equals better care, highlighting safer, natural paths to emotional vitality. If you're a parent, grandparent, or simply concerned about the future of mental health in our schools, this conversation is a must-listen.Products:LifeSeasons Lion's Mane Mushroom (Vitality Radio POW!

In this episode, we delve into the important topic of health screenings and why making time for them should be a priority in our lives. As individuals, we often find ourselves caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily routines, neglecting our health until a problem arises. However, preventative care through regular screenings can be the key to early detection and intervention, potentially saving lives.Picture a landscape where understanding your health baseline is the foundation for longevity, and where confronting the discomfort of transparency with your doctor is the first step to healing. As a black woman, I'm candid about the initial hesitance to share sensitive information and how breaking past that barrier can lead to empowerment and better health outcomes. From the value of blood pressure readings to the role of breast self-exams and cervical cancer screenings, this conversation is a testament to the power of knowledge and proactive care.Let's tackle the myriad of health screenings with the courage of self-advocates. In this episode, I also talk about why keeping a medical journal is important and how it isn't just paperwork; it's self-empowerment. And understanding the importance of knowing your blood type goes beyond mere curiosity—it could be life-saving.This episode tackles the wide range of screenings, from cholesterol and diabetes to dental and eye exams, stressing their interconnectedness with overall health.  Support the showThank you for listening to Tea With Tanya.
