Going through a cancer diagnosis and treatment can be challenging physically, mentally and emotionally. But there are actions that patients and caregivers can take at home to help ease some of those burdens. On this episode of the Bench to Bedside podcast, we hear from Kylie Stewart, a cancer survivor who joins us to share how her own diagnosis, along with her family's history of cancer, inspired her to learn more about nutrition and exercise, as well as what steps she took to keep her body as strong and healthy as possible through treatment and beyond.
