Plain-language explainers on ADHD, autism, sleep, memory and more. Each one sets out what the evidence says and where it stops.
General information only, not medical advice. We are not a clinical service yet.
"Chronic inflammation" has become the all-purpose explanation in wellness — for fatigue, low mood, brain fog, ageing, weight and almost everything else.

There is a recommendation in the chronic pain guidelines that sounds, on first reading, like a mistake.
Numbness, tingling, burning or pins and needles in the feet — often worse at night, often creeping upwards over months — is peripheral neuropathy.
Parasomnias are the things that happen during sleep that shouldn't: walking, talking, screaming, eating, thrashing, acting out a dream.
Narcolepsy is uncommon, frequently misread, and one of the slowest diagnoses in medicine.
The gut and brain genuinely communicate. That does not mean a general probiotic improves mood. Here's where the evidence is solid and where the marketing runs ahead of it.
An underactive thyroid produces slowed thinking, poor memory, fatigue and low mood — a near-perfect match for brain fog. It's common, treatable, and found with one blood test.
Stroke is the leading cause of neurological disability worldwide and largely preventable. The four signs that mean call an ambulance, and the ten risk factors behind 90% of cases.
OCD is a distressing condition built on intrusive thoughts and the compulsions used to neutralise them. It has a specific evidence-based treatment, and it is not a personality quirk.
Night work asks the body to be awake when every internal signal says sleep. You can't fix that, but light timing, sleep protection and shift direction all make a measurable difference.
A generation of adults reached forty before anyone suggested ADHD or autism. Why they were missed, what recognition actually feels like, and what to do about it.
Two botanicals in our Sleep Support formula have been properly trialled for anxiety. Here are the studies, the doses used, and why our label can't tell you how much is in the bottle.
Ranked by strength of evidence rather than by what's easiest to sell. Two of the top three cost nothing, and none of them is a supplement.
One is a normal response to something. The other is a clinical condition with specific features and effective treatments. The line between them, and why it matters.
Forgetting where you put your keys is normal. Forgetting what keys are for is not. The distinctions clinicians actually use, and when to get seen.
Hearing loss accounts for around 5% of modelled dementia risk, it's correctable, and the average person waits years before doing anything about it.
The 2024 Lancet Commission found that 45% of dementia cases could potentially be prevented by addressing 14 risk factors. Here they are, ranked, and what each one actually means.
Most people with restless legs syndrome think they have insomnia and treat it as insomnia. The four defining features, and the one that gives it away.
The 2025 AASM guideline sets specific iron thresholds for restless legs — and they're higher than the standard normal range. The exact numbers to ask about.
Four of the most common causes of brain fog show up on routine blood tests. Here's exactly what to ask for, and the two causes that no blood test will find.
The American Headache Society names three supplements for migraine prevention at specific doses. We stock one of them, under-dosed for this purpose. Here's the honest position.
The three common headache types have different diagnostic criteria and completely different treatments. Here's how clinicians separate them, using the actual ICHD-3 definitions.
Home sleep tests run $149–$500 self-pay against $1,000–$3,000+ for a lab study. Here's what you get for that, and the four things a home test can't do.
