Exercise is key to avoiding cancer/part of cancer treatment

Live healthy and long

Repost from Dr Mercola archives | May 10, 2013

Exercise should be part of regular cancer treatment; and avoiding cancer.

When my father was pronounced to have cancer in l984, he asked his doctor, Jaurencio Jarin, who studied in Harvard and finished the Boston Marathon (before Tsarnaev sowed fear into the hearts of future marathoners.) that exercising helps one avoid cancer. (My father succumbed to cancer a year later).  This statement motivated me to engage in such sports as marathon, mountain climbing, and lately biking long distance

This article merely confirms that statement made nearly 30 years ago.

In the 2013 liver congress, it was found that mice which exercised 5x a week one hour a week, experienced less incidence of liver cancer than sedentary mice.

The McMillan Support group in UK supports exercise during and after cancer.
