Brisk walking helps reduce breast cancer risk

I just read an article that said that those women who did brisk walking daily had 15 % less risk of getting breast cancer. In post-menopause women, who did brisk walking at least 5-6 times a week, had 10% less chance of getting breast cancer.

But I think this applies to all cancers, as being a thyroid cancer, I've read that walking helps reduce risks of recurrences, but walking also helps the bones to get strong, now with total knee replacement, my physio says walk, keep walking all the time, that will help reduce the pain !

So walking is healthy for all.

All the best.
