AKTIV Against Cancer works to ensure that physical activity will become an integral part of cancer treatment. Recent research indicates that the benefits of physical activity helps control symptoms and side effects of cancer therapy and has also been shown to reduce cancer progression and improve responses to anticancer therapy.
I have seen personally the positive effects of exercise on both AKTIV cofounder Grete Waitz and with my own mother while going through cancer treatments! For more information click on the following link: aktivagainstcancer.org
