Episode 2806 – Vinnie Tortorich and Chris Shaffer discuss grip strength, rising rates of cancer in people under 50, childhood obesity, and more.
Rising Rates of Cancer
- Keeping strength up as you age is important. (10:40)
- Grip strength can be an indicator of health, and it can be measured.
- Why not do something simple that will help your strength?
- Obesity is a large driver in increasing cancer rates in people under 50 years of age, especially colon cancers. (28:00)
- Exercise improves certain biomarkers in kids. (33:33)
- Parents can help at home by keeping junk food out of the house, but ultimately, kids need to decide for themselves.
- Speaking negatively to them about weight issues can cause different problems.
- Carbs like bread, pasta, and grains can cause weight gain, even when keeping below a caloric range. (44:00)
- Calories in, calories out is not the end-all, be-all.
- Even eating low-carb can cause you to gain weight if you’re adding too much to a meal. (46:00)
- Do not think you can pound even healthy food and not gain weight.
- A vast number of nutritional studies have been conducted, but not in humans; consequently, findings from studies in mice do not necessarily translate to humans. (54:00)
