Whether they’re the topic of conversation at a birthday party, popping up on ads during your favorite reality show, or trending on your TikTok algorithm, everyone seems to be talking about weight loss drugs these days. It makes sense. The ability to quickly and effectively shed pounds using medication is still a pretty new concept. And while buzzy weight loss drugs like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy have relied on weekly injections, new oral medication pills made with the same active ingredient, semaglutide, could soon enter the market, once again revolutionizing access to these medications. Last week, the American Diabetes Association…

DEAR MAYO CLINIC: I am trying to get into shape for summer, and one area that has always been challenging has been my upper arms. Recently, though, I began a workout routine, but a friend warned me about the risk of injuries. Do you have any advice to avoid problems? ANSWER: Having well-defined, muscular upper arms often is the goal of anyone seeking a fit and toned appearance. But there’s more to these hardworking muscles than good looks. The primary arm muscles include the biceps, the muscle in front of your arm, and the triceps, the one at the back. They do…

When I was in my early 20s and living in New York City, I often used to sleep in my running clothes to buy myself more shut-eye before rolling out of bed. I was usually successful, getting out the door within half an hour, sometimes even in 10 to 15 minutes if I didn’t down a cup of coffee first. Now, at 36, I find that I need at least an hour to not only wake up and pace myself with that coffee… but to also get in some prehab exercises.I recently ran my first Boston Marathon, after a solid…

ROCHESTER, Minn. — A study published in the Journal of the American College of Surgeons reveals that performing a minor surgical procedure on patients newly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer helps to identify cancer spread early and determine the stage of cancer. The researchers add that the surgery ideally should be performed before the patient begins chemotherapy. “This is an important study because it supports that staging laparoscopy may help with determining a patient’s prognosis and better inform treatment so that patients avoid unhelpful or potentially harmful surgical therapy,” says Mark Truty, M.D., surgical oncologist at the Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer…
While cancer treatments have become more and more effective in fighting cancer, there’s one major downside—heart problems. “Some medicines for cancer and chemotherapy are cardio-toxic and can lead to cardiomyopathy,” where the heart muscle becomes enlarged or rigid, says Dr. Eubany. This can lead to heart failure, heart attack, swelling of the heart, and abnormal heart beat. Radiation can also cause blockages in your blood vessels, putting you at risk for heart attack and heart failure too. And problems can show up years after treatment has ended. Not all cancers, treatments, or medication damage your cardiovascular system, however. If you…
