Episode notes
White Blood Cells Aren't A General Cancer Screen
- Jordan asked whether white blood cell rise on routine labs reliably indicates cancer; Krystle answered it usually does not.
- She emphasized imaging and biopsy are typically needed for diagnosis, with blood tests useful mainly for hematologic cancers.
Personal Story: Acting On A New Lump
- Krystle found a new breast lump, sought care, and had mammogram and ultrasound that were benign.
- Her experience reinforced advocating for concerns and getting appropriate tests promptly.
Move: Exercise Primes Anti-Cancer Immunity
- Move regularly: even a single bout of exercise acutely mobilizes immune cells, myokines, and natural killer cells with anti-cancer effects.
- Aim for consistent activity; any movement is better than none and supports metabolic and immune health.
