Many thanks to Frank Forencich, author of "Activism is Medicine," for appearing on this episode of "The Art of Medicine with Dr. Andrew Wilner."
Frank suffered a multitude of childhood illnesses and immune disorders, which subsided after he discovered sports in high school. Witnessing the positive changes to his health, he became passionate about fitness, "the body, movement, and exercise." He devoted significant energy to martial arts, obtaining Black Belts in Aikido and Karate. Frank espouses the importance of "spirit" and "journey" as well as "destination" when tackling large-scale problems like climate change and threats to biodiversity.
Frank studied human biology at Stanford University. His interest in human evolution led to a trip to Africa to visit the "ancestral environment" of human beings. These experiences formed the backdrop for his book, "Activism in Medicine."
