Show Notes
What if looking after ourselves began with looking after our cells?
In the first episode of The Julia Bradbury Podcast, Julia sits down with Dr Monisha Bhanote, a physician, cytopathologist and “cell detective”, to talk about what may be happening inside the body long before illness makes itself known.
Dr Bhanote shares how pathologists examine cells for signs of disease, why different forms of cancer require different approaches, and how persistent acid reflux can sometimes lead to changes in the lining of the oesophagus. She also tells the extraordinary story of being struck on the head by a golf ball travelling at around 150mph!

*A 2008 review estimated that inherited genetic factors account for around 5–10% of cancers, with environmental and lifestyle factors contributing to many others; however, this does not mean that all non-inherited cancers are preventable. Read the research
