What if the most powerful cancer-fighting tool isn't a drug, it's your muscle?
Exercise oncologist Sami Mansfield spent 23 years building programs inside cancer centers and co-authoring ASCO guidelines before most oncologists were willing to have this conversation. In this episode, she joins Dr. Daphne Bascom to cover what your care team probably hasn't told you about movement, muscle, menopause, and what it actually takes to prevent cancer and thrive after it.
Whether you have a diagnosis, are caring for someone who does, or are simply committed to protecting your health in midlife and beyond, this conversation will change how you think about your body.
In this episode, you will learn:
- Why ”rest and eat whatever you want” is one of the most harmful things an oncology team can say
- The minimum effective dose of movement Sami starts every patient with (it's 5 minutes and it works)
- Why muscle loss during treatment may occur and how to prevent it
- How to track your muscle health at home for under $35
- The difference between cancer detection and cancer prevention (and why 364 days matter more than your annual screening)
- Sami's ”bookend” method for protecting sleep during treatment and menopause
- ….and more!
