Cancer and Exercise: Latest Evidence and Insights (Kristin Campbell, PhD)
Manage episode 431219598 series 2430526
The number of cancer survivors in the US alone exceeds 15.5 million—a figure expected to double in the coming decades. The general role of exercise for our health & wellbeing, but what about for the individual in the midst of or the tail end of the cancer journey – does it play an important role there? If so, in what ways? Why isn’t it generally emphasized as part of the treatment protocol? And what recent advancements in the research might be changing that historical trend? Today’s guest, Dr. Kristin Campbell, has spent her career diving into these and related questions. She holds a PhD in exercise physiology, a license in physical therapy and is a professor at the University of British Columbia where she holds an appointment in the Cancer Control Program. Her research focuses on the role of exercise in cancer prevention, rehabilitation and survivorship. I had an opportunity to hear her lecture in person recently and was very happy when she agreed to join us here as a guest. I have a feeling this is one of those episodes you’re going to want to share with family and friends.
