On episode 703 of the 40 Plus Fitness Podcast, Coach Allan welcomes Dr. Rafael Cuomo, a professor of science at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and author of The Hidden Biology of Addiction and Cancer. Together, they dive into the fascinating world of cravings—how our everyday patterns and habits, from a morning coffee to bedtime doom scrolling, silently shape our biology and impact our long-term health. Dr. Cuomo breaks down the invisible yet powerful effects of chronic cravings on metabolism, inflammation, and even our cancer risk, revealing why small daily choices matter so much more than one-off events.
