Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death in both men and women in the United States. Despite this, stigma and misunderstanding persist. In honor of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, this episode features a conversation with Dr. Singhi, a medical oncologist who specializes in diagnosing and treating lung cancer. We discuss symptoms that are often missed, who should be screened, gaps in awareness, and how the landscape of lung cancer treatment continues to evolve.

After the interview, host Krystle Zuniga, PhD, RD, CSO, shares findings from a meta-analysis examining dietary patterns and lung cancer risk, offering insights on how nutrition may relate to lung health.
