Getting recommended amounts of physical activity correlated with lower risks of seven out of 15 types of cancer that researchers looked at in a new study. These cancer types were colon, breast, kidney, myeloma, liver, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and endometrial.
A new study sheds light on one potential health benefit of exercise: a lower risk of certain cancers.
The study, published Thursday in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, analyzed data from more than 750,000 adults in the United States, Europe and Australia, and found that recommended amounts of physical activity correlated with lower risks of seven types of cancer, of the 15 types that researchers looked at.Eating in a 6-hour window and fasting for 18 hours might help you live longerThese cancer types were colon, breast, kidney, myeloma, liver, non-Hodgkin lymphoma and endometrial.
"These other differences, rather than the differences in physical activity, could explain their different cancer risk," according to the institute."For example, if someone does not feel well, they may not exercise much, and sometimes people do not feel well because they have undiagnosed cancer."A number of other factors have been linked to cancer risk, including smoking, diet and obesity.
