Author, professor & oncologist @zekeemanuel.bsky.social's in THE BACK ROOM discussing his terrific new book about achieving happiness and longevity. We also discuss the state of healthcare in America today, RFK Jr & MAHA, the 'Wellness Industrial Complex', & more podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/d...

TrumpRx promises discounted drugs, but $199/month for Ozempic ($2,400/year) with no drug insurance benefit is still out of reach for so many Americans. Real drug price reform requires addressing the fundamental dysfunction in our pharmaceutical system. We need structural solutions.

A few weeks ago, I stopped in San Francisco for the “Eat Your Ice Cream” book tour at the @cwclub.bsky.social. Thank you to everyone who came out and to @djpatil.bsky.social for the great conversation. It was a pleasure to speak about the habits that matter for living a long and healthy life.

New research: if you like to stay up late, you may be hurting your heart. A new study from the UK found that if you’re a night owl, you are more likely to have worse health outcomes. As I wrote in “Eat Your Ice Cream,” high-quality sleep is foundational for our health. #EatYourIceCream #NightOwls

I banned phones in my @upenn.edu classroom last year, and the results were remarkable. Now, @joshshapiropa.bsky.social just endorsed banning phones from schools. There are three good reasons to ban phones in the thread below.

Being an optimist may actually keep you from getting sick. New research shows how the mind-body connection supports the immune system. As I wrote in “Eat Your Ice Cream,” we can make living well part of our everyday life, through six simple steps. #EatYourIceCream #Health #Wellness #Longevity

32% are "very worried" about their health care bills—more than groceries, rent, or utilities. People are thinking twice about calling an ambulance or even seeing their doctor because of cost. As I told @washingtonpost.com, we need comprehensive reform.

Dry January? Protein? Fiber? Got questions? We've got answers. Here's my interview w/ @zekeemanuel.bsky.social on his best selling new book Always Eat Your Ice Cream. This was super fun to do & we cover lots of ground. Hope you'll give it a watch. @cwclub.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=VxDU...

I wrote my new book to demystify wellness and remind people that you don’t have to be obsessed to live a healthy life. You don’t have to deprive yourself. Wellness should be something fun. Read more about my conversation with @bigthink.com. bigthink.com/books/ezekie...

After all the research I did for my new book, I changed two things in my own wellness routine: ➡️ I put more emphasis on strength training (in addition to biking) ➡️ I started reading paper books before bed Listen to my conversation with @bobkocher.bsky.social about my book "Eat Your Ice Cream."

Longevity isn't my goal. Living healthily is. My diet reflects this mentality: eggs and Greek yogurt for breakfast (yes, whole eggs), meals built around plants for dinner, and of course, dessert. Read more about my diet in the Today article: www.today.com/health/diet-...

It is always great to join @freakonomics — this time to share insights from my new best-selling book, “Eat Your Ice Cream." We cover a lot of ground. Listen to our full conversation at the link below.

75 should be the age limit for all government officials. I argued this in September 2024 in @theatlantic.com following President Biden stepping down from his re-election campaign.

Chasing perfection won't add minutes to our lives. We must find habits that we can sustain for a lifetime. I spoke with Rafaela Siewert from the @thefp.com about the philosophy of my new book and what MAHA movement gets wrong. Listen at the link. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSZm...

The #1 predictor of longevity? Social relationships. More important than exercise, diet, or sleep. I spoke with Scott Simon on Open Book about why the wellness industry is wrong and what actually matters for a healthy life. Listen to the episode below.

At @nytimes.com Dealbook, it was great to talk about something very important to me: lowering health care costs. I shared my take on the best approach to realizing universal coverage and lower health care costs. I also chatted about my book Eat Your Ice Cream. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/10/b...

Biohacking is a ruse. People think they’re smarter than evolution when we really should be sticking to what actually works: eat well, move, sleep, connect with people. That beats any biohack. More in “Eat Your Ice Cream” ➡️ wwnorton.com/books/978132...

Democrats won an opening, @zekeemanuel.bsky.social writes. They can use it to cut costs.

Health care subsidies for millions of Americans are set to expire at the end of the year if lawmakers fail to reach a compromise. @zekeemanuel.bsky.social, former Obama White House Health Policy Adviser who was an architect of the Affordable Care act, joins Katy Tur. www.ms.now/katy-tur/wat...

Thanksgiving can be a wellness trifecta if you do these three things. Good food packed with nutrients, good company and conversation, and a good walk afterward to get some exercise. These simple practices make for a healthy life. More in my forthcoming book, "Eat Your Ice Cream."

In a major new @Lancet Series, researchers argue show how ultra-processed foods are a key driver of the global chronic disease epidemic. As I talk about in my new book, the problem is when these foods become the foundation of your diet, not an occasional bite.

Rule #2 about wellness: It’s not about perfection. Building a healthy lifestyle means creating habits you can live with every day, not chasing impossible standards. More in my new book "Eat Your Ice Cream.” www.amazon.com/Eat-Your-Ice...

Rule #1 about wellness: don’t sweat the small stuff. Too many people obsess over minor changes that will not have a real impact on long-term health and wellness. I discuss this in my forthcoming book “Eat Your Ice Cream.” Pre-order it here: www.amazon.com/Eat-Your-Ice...

A breast cancer diagnosis can cost $80k in scans, surgery, chemo, and pathology within just a few months. Trump’s proposed ACA reforms wouldn’t come close to helping people cover that. More of my thoughts on @meetthepress.com ⬇️ www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-pre...

Who gets to be a doctor in America is about to change. Trump’s new federal student loan caps will push lower-income students out of medicine and make the physician shortage worse. As I have argued for years, it's time to shorten medical school to three years. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/o...

I'm 67 years old and I just joined TikTok. Here's why. As public health leaders, we must adapt to meet the audiences where they are. On the CareTalk podcast, John Driscoll and I discuss the challenges facing public health communication today.
