St. Luke's HealthNow Episode Features the Science of Diet, Sleep and Exercise

The next episode of St. Luke’s HealthNow will air on Monday, December 2, 2024, at 6:30 p.m. on WFMZ, Channel 69. This episode discusses how lifestyle changes can make a big difference in overall health. Expert panelists from St. Luke’s University Health Network (SLUHN) share the importance of prioritizing exercise and how it can reduce injuries and prevent certain diseases. 

The episode features a panel of experts at SLUHN: 

• Meagan Grega, MD, lifestyle medicine course director

• John Graham, MS, HFS, senior network administrator

• Matthew Dorcus, DO, family medicine physician

“I would say [incorporating physical activity and wellness into a person’s everyday life] is the most important choice they can make,” said Graham. “It’s very important to have great doctors and physical therapists, but really it’s what you do every day as far as the food you choose to eat, the way you choose to move your body, how much you prioritize restorative sleep, and how you manage stress.”

St. Luke's HealthNow, hosted by Ashley Russo, founder and executive producer of ASR Media Productions, is a co-production of ASR Media and SLUHN.
