The Checkup with Doctor Mike

Discovered this podcast with the fascinating episode on food politics with Marion Nestle. I’d enjoyed Dr Mike’s YouTube channel but this long format with space for questions and insightful commentary was excellent and kept me hooked. I look forward to listening more.

I only listen to this podcast when I run, because it motivates me to go and exercise! I also find it super interesting and informative, which helps keep my mind off the running. 100% recommend

I love the style of content that allows the guest and host bounce ideas off of each other in an open, non insulting manner. Honestly very refreshing. I can’t believe content like this is free. Extremely informative and helped expand on topic I was interested in/never knew or thought about! 👍👍

Dr Mike is such a valuable resource in the fight against misinformation and I wish there were more people at that level that did the same work. Always interesting conversations and they are approached with compassion and a healthy bit of skepticism. It’s refreshing to hear an individual regularly state that we just don’t have enough information about a specific issue to form a definitive conclusion, as opposed to so many people out there who truly know nothing but profess their genius and convince vulnerable people to believe in their falsehoods. Keep up the good work Dr Mike and team! Edited to add my medical question: please give me some tips on how to improve posture, and any recommendations for products that can help. I know braces/supports aren’t great but have seen some chair-type supports that you can place behind yourself to prevent slouching without impeding your muscles. Any tips greatly appreciated! I do exercise regularly and part of that is yoga which i do find helpful but not enough.
