SHARE
Jim Fried of Fried On Business talks to UHealth special guest Dr. Michael Benatar and exercise physiologist Terek Maddox about learning how to fight ALS. Benatar has a well-developed research program specializing in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Myasthenia Gravis (MG). We discuss the “Ice Bucket Disease” and the progress they are making in learning how to fight ALS. Maddox trains future NFL Hall of Famer Frank Gore and the Miami Dolphins’ Lamar Miller. He will be leading the Walk To Defeat ALS. Terek was the primary caregiver for his uncle while his uncle fought ALS. We will discuss the impact treating his uncle had on him and why it motivates him to be involved with the Walk To Defeat ALS on Saturday, September 26, 2015, at 10 a.m. at Museum Park in Miami.
