MRWH: Dr. Daniel E. Lieberman, How Physical Activity Prevents and Treats Diseases

Listen in to my conversation with Harvard Professor, Daniel E. Lieberman. He’s the man when it comes to how and why the human body looks and functions the way it does! He is most well known for his interest in how evolutionary approaches to activities such and walking and running, as well as changes to our body’s environments can help better prevent and treat musculoskeletal diseases. Listen in to learn how running “works” for us, why it’s so hard to get started, and what benefits it has on our community. We also discuss super shoes, the Boston marathon, and what not to say to new runners! I’m so honored to share him with you! Want to learn more?
