Over the past decade, the number of young adults aged 12-17 years suffering from mental health disorders has more than doubled. While adolescents and teens are notorious for mood swings and rebellion, parents today are navigating new terrain as their children are increasingly at risk of developing a mental health issue. Amid caring for the rising number of mental health patients, a glaring question remains for practitioners: What is causing this epidemic of illness?


In this webinar, acclaimed integrative physician Dr. Kenneth Bock shares a revolutionary view of mental health based on his upcoming book, Brain Inflamed: Uncovering the Hidden Causes of Anxiety, Depression, and Other Mood Disorders in Adolescents and Teens. It is a view that suggests that many of the most common mental disorders diagnosed in adolescents, teens, and adults—like depression, anxiety, and OCD—may arise from the same underlying condition called systemic neuroinflammation, which can be triggered by:

  • Post-strep infections

  • Lyme disease


  • Gluten sensitivity


Dr. Bock will discuss the pivotal roles of the immune system, the microbiome, and the blood-brain barrier; the improper function of these can lead to:

  • Intestinal and blood-brain barrier hyperpermeability


  • Autoimmune disorders


  • Mental health disorders



This webinar will also provide a summary of integrative protocols, bringing hope for a brighter future to your patients and their families.
