In our latest Season 2 episode, we ride along with "Generational Gene" (@generoundtree) as he takes on The @PanMass, a 200-mile bike ride across Massachusetts benefiting cancer research at @DanaFarber. We learn how he uses cycling to combat his predisposition to diabetes and cancer, hearing from expert @Chikagirl from @MassGeneralNews on the subject.

Listen to the full episode now: https://t.co/60QwVtokM8

And we look forward to our next episode, which features Sue Spencer- a woman who has ridden The @PanMass for 20 years, through multiple bouts of metastatic breast cancer.

MBO has released a new Apple premium episode, "Exercise to Lose Weight? The Complexity of Obesity with Dr. Chika Anekwe"

It's estimated that more than two-thirds of U.S. adults are overweight or have obesity. Could this be connected to why so many also experience cancer? Dr. Anekwe, an obesity medicine physician at @MassGeneralMDs and an Instructor in Medicine at @harvardmed, seems to think it's plausible.

During our interview, @Chikagirl details the complicated practice of obesity management and its importance, including preventing further health complications such as cancer.

Subscribe to our Apple Premium now to hear the full episode: https://t.co/k4TWdqsGcs

And stay tuned for our next full length episode that features Dr. Anekwe as a medical expert!

@ziman_kristen @bariweiss Thank you.

@covidmommyporn @calleymeans @bariweiss @thehonestlypod @VPrasadMDMPH Not avoiding agreeing that healthy food is important; I said it repeatedly actually.

[Chika V. Anekwe, MD MPH @Chikagirl]

@calleymeans @bariweiss @thehonestlypod @VPrasadMDMPH Am I not being serious? agree to disagree that it needs to be a decision between healthy foods or medicine. Obvi, we can have both. Yet, do you think think none of us had jobs or obesity medicine wasn’t around b4 Ozempic came on the scene? Get real.

[Chika V. Anekwe, MD MPH @Chikagirl]

@calleymeans @bariweiss @thehonestlypod @VPrasadMDMPH What happens to folks who eat healthy foods and still struggle with their weight. As a physician I meet so many of them.
