Cancer risk is reduced by house work

Researchers found out that physical house work or exercise reduces the risk of cancer up to 30 percent.Another study shows that the chance of breast cancer is very low among the women doing physical works or exercise.
All the findings were presented at the American Association for Cancer Research's annual meeting in Orlando. According to the researchers more you work or exercise more you are protected.

The researchers at Vanderbilt University in the US and the Shanghai Cancer Institute in China looked at 832 women with endometrial cancer and a control population who did not have the disease.According to the researchers chance of disease can be reduced by adopting an active lifestyle.But it does not mean that we should work or exercise in excess.
It is a good news for stay-at-home-moms or housewives because they work hard in their home.

Great article. Too many women do not realize that housework is a good way to exercise. I like the way your articles are short and straight to the point...you go girl! Keep 'em coming.
