Every tap, like, and scroll on social media is feeding a mental
health epidemic—and it’s targeting our youth. In honor of World

mobilizing efforts to support mental health worldwide, I'm sitting

PhD to explore the dramatic rise in anxiety and depression among
today’s youth. We’ll dive into the evolution of internet culture,
the role of food systems in social disruption, and how we can turn
the tide on these trends. If you’re concerned about the mental
well-being of the next generation, tune in for actionable
solutions. In this episode, we discuss: The Rise of Depression and
