In this powerful episode of the Uncover Your Eyes podcast, Dr. Meenal Agarwal explores one of the most urgent healthcare topics of our time — the hidden toxic overload impacting our children's mental and physical health. Rates of autism, ADHD, and speech delays have surged nearly 300% since the 2000s, but what if this isn't just a diagnostic trend? What if we're witnessing a developmental crisis? To uncover the root causes, Dr. Meenal sits down with Chelsea Juels, a nationally recognized holistic healthcare practitioner.
