Research Links Physical Activity with Reduced Breast Cancer Risk ...

A recent study claimed that there are fair chances that physical activity can reduce breast cancer risk, thereby sending a message across to those who are victim of sedentary lifestyle. It has been claimed by a team from University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that women can reduce the breast cancer risk significantly by indulging in physical exercise.

Published early online in Cancer, which is a peer-reviewed journal of the American Cancer Society, the study though has recommended physical activity, it?s yet not clear to what extent physical workout is required.

For the research, Lauren McCullough, who is a doctoral candidate at the UNC Gillings School of Global Public Health, examined the chances of finding out association between physical activity which has been done at different stages of life and risk attached with breast cancer. The study involved 1,504 women with breast cancer and 1, 555 women without breast cancer.

"The observation of a reduced risk of breast cancer for women who engaged in exercise after menopause is particularly encouraging given the late age of onset for breast cancer?, said Lauren McCullough, while asserting that active women can reduce risk attacked with various diseases. There is need for women to inculcate regular exercise in daily life for a healthy life ahead.
