IS THE ACTIVITY A PREVENTIVE OR CURATIVE WAY OF CANCER DISEASE?


Good afternoon! We're here again!

Nowadays, everybody know physical activity is a factor in cancer prevention, so we work to make people aware of the benefits of it. 

Regarding the colon cancer, 48 studies show that physical activity produce a decreased risk of 40-50%, and reaches 70% if it is provided with an intense character. 

For the cancer of prostate, as Tymchuk found in 2001, a low diet in fats and discharge in fiber, together with physical exercise, reduces the increase in androgens responsible for prostate cancer. 

For the cancer of breast, 34 of 51 studies showed that a decrease of risk was taking place in the physically active women.

Although in some cancers decreased risk was only described as "possible" , what is clear is that the prescription of exercise for cancer patients during treatment and thereafter, helps improve your quality of life, helps to forget the pain and reduce the impact of the disease and its side effects.
