Good news for many: How to prevent 9 types of cancer in just 11 minutes.

A recent study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that short bursts of exercise that cause the heart to race can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and, notably, up to nine types of cancer.

Accordingly, just 11 minutes a day (or 75 minutes a week) of moderate-intensity exercise can help reduce the risk of premature death by 23%, the risk of cardiovascular disease by 17%, and the risk of cancer by 7%.

You don't necessarily have to exercise; just try to walk or bike to work or school.

This is really good news for many people who don't have time to exercise much. Because even just 10 minutes of exercise a day can have a positive effect.

Scientists from the University of Cambridge (UK) analyzed 196 papers from 94 large research groups with more than 30 million participants. They examined the relationship between participants' levels of physical activity and their risk of cardiovascular disease, certain types of cancer, and premature death.

The results showed that just 75 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per week reduced the risk of premature death by 23%. Readers can find more information about this article on the health page dated August 18th.
