High Levels Of Fitness Associated With Lower Cancer RisksIf you are a middle-aged man, high levels of fitness might help you lower the risk of lung and colorectal cancer. Higher fitness levels are likewise connected with an enhanced rate of survival for men diagnosed with some types of cancer.

The new research, conducted by specialists in Vermont and Texas, followed the health and fitness levels of over 14,000 men aged 46 to 50. The subject’s cardiovascular stamina was screened by having the men run on a treadmill. Fitness levels were screened at regular intervals of about 6.5 years, from 1971 to 2009.

During this time, cancer diagnoses and survival rates were also monitored . Investigation demonstrated that men with high levels of fitness were 55 percent less inclined to be diagnosed with lung tumor than the individuals who neglected to walk or run a mile in under 12 minutes. High fitness levels were additionally connected with a 44 percent lower risk of being diagnosed with colorectal tumor. However, fitness levels had no impact on prostate cancer rates.

Research leader Dr. Susan Lakoski, a cardiologist at the University of Vermont, was quoted by the BBC as saying:

“This preventative message starts earlier than you think, way before you develop cancer. Your health behaviors and your fitness earlier in life has an impact 20 or 30 years later – and that’s what people don’t realize.”

A lot of studies have indicated cardiovascular fitness is associated with enhanced heart health, and some research has connected sound fitness levels with lower chances of developing of bowel cancer. Nevertheless, the most recent exploration is one of the first to show a decreased risk of lung cancer.

Tom Stansfeld, a representative for charitable org Cancer Research UK also noted:

“Being regularly physically active is great for your overall health and, as this study demonstrates, has benefits far beyond the health of your heart.”

The research, distributed this week in the diary JAMA Oncology, likewise demonstrated that a man diagnosed with cancer after the age of 65 was 32 percent less inclined to pass away provided he had high fitness levels in his late 40s.

Lakoski also told Time the following:

“It’s pretty remarkable that a fitness estimate 10-15 years before your actual cancer diagnosis can predict how long you’re going to live after you develop cancer. We talk about personalized medicine a lot now in medicine when we think about genetics, but we don’t think about it in terms of healthy behaviors.”

Lakoski trusts the examination stresses the importance of fitness as a sort of preventive solution to various diseases.
