A comprehensive new review has found that exercise can significantly reduce the side effects of cancer treatments, including brain fog, pain, fatigue, anxiety, and depression. The analysis, which covered a wide range of cancer types and exercise forms-including aerobic, resistance, and mind-body practices like yoga and tai chi-showed that nearly half of the associations between exercise and symptom relief were supported by moderate to high certainty evidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Notably, the review highlights that exercise not only helps with physical symptoms but also improves cognitive function and mood. Pre-operative exercise was also linked to fewer post-surgical complications. Experts recommend that physical activity be integrated into cancer care to help improve both quality of life and clinical outcomes for patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
