10-Minute Exercise Triggers Anti-Cancer Signals in Blood, Study Reveals

  • Just ten minutes of vigorous exercise can alter blood composition, triggering anti-cancer signals.
  • Newcastle University study found exercise-altered blood changed over 1,300 genes in bowel cancer cells, reducing growth.
  • Exercise causes rapid molecular changes, reducing inflammation and improving blood vessel function.
  • Proteins released post-exercise directly affect tumor behavior, offering mechanistic insight into cancer prevention.
  • Short bursts of intense movement are linked to significant reductions in cancer incidence, impacting cellular machinery.

Why It Matters: Brief, intense exercise can activate powerful anti-cancer mechanisms at a molecular level, boosting health.
