Exercise Cuts Breast Cancer Risk by One Third

As much as I hate exercise, I hate the thought of ever getting cancer even more.

In this article just published back in February which cited the research conducted by the Archives of Internal Medicine,

"Women who exercise regularly can cut their risk of breast cancer by a third, say
researchers.
Those who swim, jog or do aerobic sports for more than five
hours a week
have a lower risk, they found. "

It sounds like a lot but when you look at the benefits, it's hard not to do it. So, now we're also off to the gym. Treadmill anyone?
