ADHD has become one of the most common diagnoses of modern childhood, yet the way we define it hasn’t changed. We still describe behaviors. We still chase symptoms. And we still overlook what may actually be happening inside the brain.

In this episode, I challenge the traditional model of ADHD and reframe it as a problem of neurological imbalance. Attention, motivation, impulse control, and even physical restlessness are not random traits — they are outputs of specific brain networks developing at different speeds.

As technology, screen exposure, and modern lifestyles reshape how children grow up, the gap between brain development and environmental demands may be widening. The result is a generation struggling to focus, regulate emotion, and stay present — not because they are broken, but because their brains are adapting to a world that changed faster than biology could.

In this conversation, I look at ADHD from the level of brain function rather than behavior, because effective intervention begins with identifying which systems are underdeveloped, not simply suppressing the outward signs.

Because attention isn’t just a skill. It’s a neurological state.

In this episode of the Neurotrition Podcast, host Matthew “Dr. Z” sits down with Dr. Melillo to explore The Melillo Method—a brain-based approach focused on understanding how neurological balance influences behavior, cognition, and overall health.

Dr. Melillo explains the core principles behind his method, how brain asymmetry can affect development and performance, and why addressing neurological function is a critical piece of long-term wellness. This conversation bridges neuroscience, nutrition, and real-world application in a way that’s accessible, practical, and grounded in clinical insight.

Whether you’re a clinician, parent, educator, or someone interested in brain health, this episode offers a deeper look into how targeted neurological strategies can support better outcomes across the lifespan.

Cholesterol Isn’t the Problem — Here’s What You’re Missing

For years, cholesterol has been blamed as the main cause of heart disease — but what if that story is incomplete?

In this episode, we break down the real drivers of heart health, why cholesterol has been misunderstood, and what most people (and headlines) get wrong about cardiovascular risk. We explore the role of inflammation, lifestyle factors, metabolic health, and why focusing on cholesterol alone can distract from the bigger picture.

If you’ve ever been confused by conflicting health advice or felt like something wasn’t adding up, this conversation is for you.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why cholesterol isn’t the root problem it’s made out to be
• What actually contributes to heart disease
• The difference between markers vs. causes
• How modern health narratives oversimplify complex biology
• What to focus on instead for long-term heart health

This episode is educational, thought-provoking, and challenges mainstream assumptions — without fear-mongering.

Long COVID can feel like your body just won’t hit reset. Fatigue, brain fog, dizziness, a racing heart can show up in all kinds of ways, and no two stories are the same.

In this episode, I break down why your body might still be stuck in fight-or-flight mode, what systems COVID really messes with, and why inflammation sometimes just won’t turn off. I’ll also share the natural ways we can start to tip the balance back to actually feel better.

Think of this as a roadmap for understanding your body, reclaiming your energy, and finally seeing a path to recovery.

Most people don’t fail their New Year health goals because they’re lazy.
They fail because their goals were vague, unrealistic, and built with no plan.

In this solo episode, I break down the neuroscience behind habits, why 60% of adults set health resolutions every year but quit by February, and how to build goals the right way while celebrating small wins that actually create momentum.

I also break down the gut-brain connection and how metabolic health, thyroid issues, and blood sugar processing can silently sabotage your goals before you even start

Cold and flu season is here, and everyone keeps asking me the same thing: “What should I actually take to stay healthy?”

In this episode, I break down the nutrients I trust the most — Vitamin D, A, C, Zinc, and the antiviral compound almost no one talks about: monolaurin. I explain why immune balance matters more than boosting, what really causes cytokine storms, and what I personally take to protect myself and my family.
