Cancer will afflict one of three women and one in two men in their lifetimes in the United States.It is the one disease that seems to strike fear in the hearts and minds of all people, lurking like the thief in the night, waiting to rob people of their strength, their vitality and their accumulated riches. Unlike other major chronic diseases, it can attack different parts of the body, and then spread to consume the entire body.

I find very interesting this part
“A second study of 20 cancer patients who had recently undergone chemotherapy examined their responses to a program of aerobic exercise and strength and flexibility training. ”
my wife works in oncology and she agrees with this post 100%. Thanks !

Enjoyed your post on “more proof cancer patients need more exercise not more rest”. With patients suffering from pain or fatigue we noticed those who were more active had better coping skills as well.
