Welcome back to The SANAMethod Podcast! In episode 18, your host, Dan Lowry, (flying solo this week while Dr Richard Ralph enjoys the Sunshine Coast) delivers a powerful, no-nonsense follow-up to last week’s discussion with Dr Sophie Mepham on exercise as a potent anti-cancer intervention.

We break down the big takeaways from the CHALLENGE Trial at ASCO 2025, including that jaw-dropping 37% reduction in cancer recurrence through structured exercise, and translate them into simple, real-world action steps you can take to reduce your cancer risk and radically improve your overall health.

This episode covers:
• The science of fuel partitioning, insulin sensitivity and metabolic health

• The dangers of sarcopenic obesity and how to combat it
• A practical weekly blueprint: Strength training, steps and cardio
• Nutrition advice grounded in science (hello, Mediterranean diet!)
• Thoughts on supplements, sleep, stress, alcohol and more

This solo episode is packed with insights, personal reflections and tangible advice to help you:
• Move better
• Eat better

This isn't medical advice, just a passionate fitness professional thinking out loud, sharing what works based on research, experience and a deep desire to help others thrive.
