A STUDY STUDIES STUDIES


The British Journal of Sports Medicine studied 62 other studies concerning physical activity in relation to breast cancer.

What they found is while all physical activity cuts risks somewhat there are certain groups of woman that benefit more than others from it.

Women who were postmenopausal and near normal bmi or body mass index, seemed to benefit the most, cutting their risks for breast cancer by 25% to 30%. They also found that recreational activity was more of a benefit than work activity.

They say that more research is needed to determine more definitive results.
