Transcription:
"Behind the headlines: Medication or Meditation? According to the Centers for Disease Control more than four million American children are diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or, ADHD. Use of psychotropic meditations in this population is controversial. To the Contrary takes a look at how Transcendental Meditation, or T-M, can help some young people to cope with ADHD without medication."
"This may seem like your typical middle school classroom, but twice a day everything comes to a stop. These students aren't napping, they're meditating.
Zach - "It gives us a break during class so we can rest, and not continue on with the pressure and stuff..."
Cuyler - "It kind of makes me feel more relaxed and less mad and angry."
Hameed - "If I've had a bad morning, I can get a lot of stuff off my mind."
"Zach, Cuyler and Hameed all have ADHD. They attend Kingsbury day school in Washington DC - a school for children with language base disabilities. Everyday, classes at Kingsbury stop for two Transcendental Meditation, or T-M, sessions. Researchers are finding that T-M may do more than just relax the children, it may actually decrease disabling aspects of ADHD.
Sarina Grosswald, Ed.D, Director, T-M study at Kingsbury day school - "Working with these kids, they're having difficulty concentrating and keeping their attention to start with, And T-M is the exact opposite. It doesn't require that they focus or that they control the mind in any way. So it's a perfect match for students who have difficulty with ADHD or attention, concentration, that kind of thing."
Depression is a disorder rampant world over. With so much information available about this mental disorder, one would think they know everything there is to know. But surprisingly there are still areas regarding depression that are quite obscure. Many resources simply list symptoms of depression. Most people who talk about depression paint a picture of someone lying in bed under the covers without any energy or motivation. Although fatigue is a telltale sign of depression, it is not the only one. There is a myriad of subtle personality shifts that occur when you slip into a depressive state.

These are the top 5 best prescription weight loss medications on the market. These weight loss meds actually work and I've personally used them on many patients with success.
I've been helping people lose weight for a long time and over the years I've been able to test many different weight loss medications. I've found that while there are many prescription weight loss medications available, only a handful actually work very well.
In this video, I will walk you through the top 5 best prescription weight loss medications available on the market, which ones I prefer to use, what you can expect while using them, how they work, and more.
Before you jump in, make sure you understand that while prescription weight loss medications can be very effective, you should never just use them by themselves. If you are serious about weight loss you should combine these weight loss medications with other changes such as adjusting your diet, reducing your stress, exercising daily, and balancing your other hormones.
If your plan is to jump on one of these medications and lose a bunch of weight, it's probably not going to happen!
But these medications can be very effective if used correctly and if combined with a healthy lifestyle.
The top 5 best prescription medications for weight loss include:
#1. Saxenda/Victoza
Saxenda is FDA approved for weight loss and is probably the single most effective medication on this list.
#2. Invokana/Farxiga
Invokana and Farxiga are not FDA approved for weight loss but they can help. They work by helping your body eliminate or pee out sugar from your kidneys.
#3. Naltrexone
Naltrexone is a part of one FDA approved weight loss medication known as Contrave. Naltrexone is not as effective as the others but it is very safe.
#4. Metformin
Metformin is commonly used to treat diabetes but it does have some weight loss benefits. Don't expect much from metformin though because many people are already taking it.
#5. Phentermine
Phentermine helps with weight loss by reducing your appetite and increasing up your metabolism. It only works if it is used correctly, however, so don't just jump on it without understanding how to use it.
