Research Paper On Cancer - Facts?

Research indicates that the benefits of excercising as a treatment for cancer decreases body fight, increases lean muschle mass, decreases nausea and fatigue, improves natural defense mechanisms, improves sense of control, improves mood, self-esteem, and self reported improved quality of life.





Other studies found that exercising cancer patients had improved work capacity, lower heart rates at given exercise intensity, increased maximum workloads and time to exhaustion than did non-exercising cancer patients.





Psychological changes, including a decrease in total mood disturbances, decrease in depression and fewer problems sleeping were noted between the exercise and non-exercise groups.

I would agree to some extent on the first paragraph, IF treatment doesn't make it impossible to exercise.





The last paragraphs are not accurate at all. Work is near impossible unless there is no personal insurance, I know some people that worked thru treatments only to have their work insurance, but that eventually killed them... you need to rest, treatments are very hard on our body systems.





Depression is a factor with many cancer victims, after all.. when you are told you are going to die which is for the most part of cancer victims, its a little hard not to be depressed, at least at the start of it all. Later many of us come to terms with it. Sleep disturbances are common, either from meds, or from emotional issues. Sometimes the only time sleep comes is when one is exhausted from treatments. That would be with exercise or not. Exercise may help the physical side of wanting sleep... but it seldom shuts down the mind long enough to rest.
Reply:On paper or in theory all you mentioned is good and probably true, but having gone through cancer, surgery, chemo and radiation. More often than not the patient feels like s@*t and only wants to curl up in a ball and sleep or hug the white wishing well.
