Episode description
Dr. Xand van Tulleken is a British doctor, broadcaster, and author, best known for co-hosting Operation Ouch!, a BAFTA-winning children's show about medicine, alongside his twin brother, Dr. Chris van Tulleken. He has presented numerous health documentaries and also written books on medicine, diet, and well-being, making complex health topics accessible to a wide audience.
While Dr. Xand hasn’t been tested for ADHD (yet!), Dr Mine and Paul were keen to get his thoughts on the subject - and, of course, because they’re massive Operation Ouch! superfans.
In this episode, they dive into the ADHD label, the challenges of insomnia, and how a tough school experience can shape adult life.
