Exercise Cuts Colon Cancer Risk

Researchers found that men and women who exercised every day (one hour) for a year, cut their risk of of colon polyps and colon cancer. It may prevent cancer by lowering insulin levels.

Insulin is the strongest tissue building hormone in the body. It triggers the movement of amino acids into all of our cells and stimulates our genes to make new proteins (this includes cancer growth).

Basically, lower your sugar intake to cut insulin spikes, exercise regularly every day and avoid trans fats for the biggest cancer fighting effort.
