A study done in an Italian hospital indicated that those who consumed two or more servings of fish per week were less at risk from cancer than those who ate no fish at all. Fish consumption appeared to have no effect on lymphoma or cancer of the breast, liver, gall bladder, bladder, kidney, or thyroid. The high content of fatty acids found in fish is speculated to have reduced the risk of cancer. Studies have suggested that these fatty acids inhibit the growth of cancer cells. Furthermore it is high in protein and low in total fat.
Fish is a healthy addition to any diet.
Moderate Exercise May Reduce Lung Cancer Middle-aged men who exercise for 6 to 8 hours per week may have a reduced chance of lung cancer. Moderate exercise was defined as a physical activity that has an energy expenditure of 12,000 kilojoules per week. Exercise improves the immune system and boosts the overall functioning of the lungs. Research stresses, however, that cigarette smoking and the increased risk of cancer associated with smoking cannot be reversed by simple exercise. May Increase Women's Stroke Risk Young women who are deficient in Folic Acid and other B Vitamins may fall into a higher risk category for stroke.
