30 minutes of exercise boosts our cancer-killing white blood cells:

- A group of 20 breast cancer patients used a stationary bike for 30 minutes at their preferred resistance and blood samples were taken before, during and after.

- During exercise, the number of cancer-destroying, cytotoxic T cells and NK cells increased, whilst cancer promoting cells decreased or stayed the same.

- Interestingly, the mobilisation of the white bloods was linked with lactate concentration, meaning the more intense the exercise, the greater the result.

- It’s not known whether the increase in these cells were able to infiltrate the tumour area, but still supports the benefits of exercise to help fight cancer.

Kids far less active today. More technology keeps them sitting. Schools need to INCREASE Phys-Ed. For some, it's the only exercise they get.
