Reported November 03, 2008
Los Angeles – Breast cancer is one of a womans worst fears. Many women go through having breast cancer only to have it again. However, studies show that exercise can prevent not only a relapse of breast cancer but any occurrence at all. The American Cancer Society and the American Institute for Cancer Research emphasizes the positive affects exercise can have on a woman.
Exercising not only helps to keep a person in shape and at a healthy weight, but it can improve the overall health of a person, and this in turn can prevent breast cancer from developing in some women. To do this, you dont have to start running marathons. Instead, all it takes is a brisk walk once a day. This will help your physical and mental health, and it will keep you fit and healthy, as well as creating a wall between you and breast cancer. With exercise, start of gradually and work your way up to more intense exercises. A little bit of activity each day can do the body wonders. This is especially important if you there is someone in your family with breast cancer (i.e. it an be hereditary). After all, whats a small walk when faced with a life or death situation?
