Men’s health
HALVING THE RISK
In the UK, around one in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Now, a new study has found that men who exercise regularly could cut their risk of prostate cancer in half. According to experts, daily activity, which can include gardening or walking, has a far larger protective effect than previously thought. The study by the World Cancer
Research Fund and Cancer Research UK involved men over the age of 50, and found that those who were most active had a 51% reduced risk of prostate cancer compared to those who were least active.
