“Western medical intervention is always there, but we also don’t want to over pathologize and suddenly everything is an illness or condition. There are certain things that are the nature of life.” 

On this week’s episode of the Eat Green Make Green Podcast I sit down with the one and only Dr. Nada Milosavljevic. Dr. Nada is is a double board-certified, Harvard-trained physician and faculty member at Harvard Medical School. She holds specialty certifications in regenerative and functional medicine, medical acupuncture, Ayurvedic medicine, and Chinese herbal treatments. She is the only Certified Tea Specialist doctor in the US, she is the Founder of the wellness brand Sage Tonic, and author of Holistic Health For Adolescents. We talk about Dr. Nada’s path from law to medicine to preventative medicine, the top health issues that adolescents face today (anxiety, sleep issues, attention issues, etc.)  and what tools they can use to better cope with or overcome them, the fine line between normal human experiences and actually having a health condition, the empowering nature of holistic self-help techniques, the power of the placebo effect, the positives and negatives of mental health being in mainstream conversation, why mental health is the same as overall health, why she created Sage Tonic and what their mission is, the power of teaching kids wellness tools at a young age, and why the most direct path to wellness is prevention.
