Breast cancer and the role of exercise in women.
This review states that exercise reduces the risk of breast cancer.
Exercise in prevention and management of cancer.
OPINION STATEMENT: Regular and vigorous physical exercise has been scientifically established as providing strong preventative medicine against cancer with the potential to reduce incidence by 40%. The effect is strongest for breast and colorectal cancer; however, evidence is accumulating for the protective influence on prostate cancer, although predominantly for more advanced disease and in older men…
Predictors of inactive lifestyle among adult survivors of childhood cancer.
This study looked at the physical activity of 9301 adult survivors of childhood cancer and 2886 siblings. Adult survivors of childhood cancer survivors were less active than their siblings.
The potential for prevention of colorectal cancer in the UK.
“We estimate that 31.5% of cancers in men and 18.4% in women could be prevented if reasonable targets with respect to diet (reduced consumption of red meat, increased fruit and vegetables), exercise (30 min 5 days a week), alcohol consumption (3 U a day for men, 2 U for women) and weight control were achieved.”

Impact of nutrition and exercise on cancer survival.
Observational data strongly indicate that obesity, weight gain, and physical inactivity are adverse prognostic factors, although data on diet or supplement use in relation to cancer survival are more limited and inconsistent.
