Show Highlights & Big Takeaways

1. Wearing a CGM

Wearing a Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) provides real-time insights into how your body responds to food, exercise, and stress. While I don't believe everyone needs to wear one, it can help you make more informed lifestyle choices.

2. Antibiotics & Sepsis

A recent study found that the commonly used antibiotic piperacillin/tazobactam may have long-term negative effects on septic patients compared to cefepime. Patients treated with piperacillin/tazobactam faced a significantly higher risk of dying within 90 days than those given cefepime.

3. Exercise & Cancer

Research shows that exercise plays a crucial role in reducing cancer risk and improving outcomes for those diagnosed, including lower relapse rates and improved survival.
