Good Humans with Cooper Chapman

#173 - Dr. David Mizrahi - The Power of Exercise in Children's Cancer Recovery


Listen Later


In this deeply insightful episode of the Good Humans podcast, I sit down with Dr. David Mizrahi, an Accredited Exercise Physiologist who is revolutionizing the way we understand cancer recovery, particularly in children. Dr. Mizrahi’s cutting-edge research focuses on how exercise can significantly improve outcomes and quality of life for young cancer patients. As the 2023 Col Reynolds Fellow, he is leading the charge in integrating movement into cancer care.


Key Takeaways:

  • The Role of Exercise in Cancer Recovery: Dr. Mizrahi explains how physical activity can aid in the recovery process, improve resilience, and enhance the overall well-being of children undergoing cancer treatment.
  • Supporting Those with Cancer: Practical advice on how to support loved ones battling cancer, focusing on emotional and physical support strategies.
  • Preventative Measures and Early Detection: Learn about the steps we can take for early cancer detection and how incorporating exercise into our lives can serve as a preventative measure.
  • Children’s Cancer Awareness Month: With September being Children’s Cancer Awareness Month, this episode highlights the importance of spreading awareness and supporting ongoing research.


Personal Note: This episode is particularly meaningful to me as a very close friend of mine recently had their 19-month-old child diagnosed with leukemia. It’s a sobering reminder of how important this work is, and I hope this conversation with Dr. Mizrahi offers valuable insights and hope to those affected by childhood cancer.
