Physical fitness not only prevents cancer but also improves survival rates for diagnosed patients. A meta-analysis of 47,000 patients found that higher fitness levels reduced mortality risk by 31-46 percent, with even small improvements lowering risk by 11-18 percent. Exercise boosts immunity (activating tumor-targeting natural killer cells), reduces inflammation (lowering cancer-fueling cytokines and insulin-like growth […]
