Finding Focus Without Caffeine or Adderall

I offered some insight to Arden Fanning Andrews in her piece for Vogue about how she learned to find focus without caffeine or an adderrall prescription:

When interviewing nutritionists, it’s often difficult to get a straight answer as to whether caffeine is really good or bad for us. Some think it can help boost mood. Others note that it can burn out adrenals and spike cortisol levels. “Caffeine can induce adrenal fatigue and put your body in fight-or-flight mode,” explains nutritionist Maya Feller, M.S., R.D., C.D.N. “When we put our body in excessive adrenal stress, our body shifts from processing mode to fight-sleep mode and cortisol levels increase.”
