Episode Synopsis

In his new book, “What Happened to Moderation?” Dr. Stephen Brewer says that Americans are drawn to extreme health care choices, just as they gravitate toward political extremes and non-stop work patterns. In today’s episode, Dr. Brewer, medical director at the Canyon Ranch Wellness Resorts, advises us to back away from trendy, over-the-top diet and exercise routines. It’s time, he says, to look at common-sense approaches to improving our health and treating routine illnesses. Exercise is vital to fitness, and fitness is a key to career performance, but that doesn’t mean you need to run marathons.
