S2 Ep. 40: Increase in Neurodivergency

Welcome to a thought-provoking exploration into the rise of neurodiversity. This episode takes a deep dive into the potential causes – from the growing dominance of technology in our lives, which steers us towards a more visual-spatial mode of thinking, to environmental and dietary influences that might be reshaping our neurological makeup.

Autism has increased by approximately 150% since the year 2000, while ADHD has increased by approximately 9.7 % between 2007-2011.

We’ll explore the significant role of gut health, evidenced by steps like England’s addition of probiotics to baby formula, and what other countries are doing in response.

By dissecting these factors, we aim to uncover how much of the increase in neurodiversity can be attributed to modern lifestyle changes, and what this means for the future of our global society.
