Campaign for sound health: a powerful weapon for cancer control

In the long struggle against cancer, medical research continues to explore various means of combating it, and the movement of reasonable health is gradually emerging as a star in the field of cancer control. It not only helps to reduce the risk of cancer, but also plays an active and critical role in the treatment and rehabilitation of cancer patients. For a healthy population, sport is like a strong body line that can effectively reduce the incidence of multiple cancers. Long-term patterns of motion can regulate the body’s endocrine system and keep hormone levels relatively stable. For example, sports can reduce the oversurgery of estrogens, thereby reducing the risk of breast and uterine cancer. At the same time, it also promotes intestinal creeping, accelerates the passage of food within the intestinal tract and reduces the length of stay of hazardous substances in the intestinal tract, thereby reducing the likelihood of a colon cancer. Studies have shown that a minimum of 150 minutes of aerobic activity per week, such as walking, jogging, swimming, etc., or 75 minutes of high-intensity aerobic activity, such as running, jumping ropes, etc., with appropriate force training, such as weight lifting, push-ups, etc., can significantly reduce the overall cancer risk. The earlier the movement starts, the greater the benefits for the prevention of cancer, which can be strangled in the cradle before it is gerbilized. When, unfortunately, cancer strikes, sport also plays an indispensable role in treatment and rehabilitation. For patients who are undergoing cancer treatment, reasonable exercise enhances the resilience and strength of the body and reduces the side effects of treatment, such as fatigue, nausea, vomiting, etc. While chemotherapy and re-therapeutic treatment often result in patients being weak and less immune, moderate sports can stimulate the immune system, increase white cell activity, increase body resistance and make patients more resistant to treatment. Some cancer patients, for example, persist in sports such as walking and yoga while undergoing chemotherapy, and find themselves in significantly better health than those who lack sports, not only to be able to complete their treatment on time, but also to improve their quality of life significantly. At the stage of cancer rehabilitation, sport is the key to helping people living with the disease regain a healthy life. It helps to restore body function, improves CPR function and promotes muscle growth and increased bone density. Traditional movements such as Tai Chi Kung Fu and eight bands are well adapted for cancer rehabilitation patients. They can help patients to improve their physical balance and co-ordination and to reduce problems such as muscular contraction and corrosiveness due to chronic illness and treatment. At the same time, the campaign can provide tremendous psychological support to patients. Cancer patients often suffer from enormous psychological stress during illness and treatment and are prone to anxiety, depression and the like. Sports, on the other hand, can contribute to the physical distribution of neurotransmitters such as endorphins, which have a natural antidepressive and anti-anxiety effect and can make patients happy and enhance confidence in overcoming disease. However, it should be stressed that the movement of cancer patients must be guided by the principle of reasonable health. First, sports programmes should be tailored to the patient ‘ s cancer type, stage of treatment and state of health. For example, after surgery, lung cancer patients may need to make a gradual transition from simple respiratory training and light physical activity to aerobics and force training, while bone cancer patients need to avoid excessive heavy and severe shock movements to avoid complications such as fractures. Secondly, motor strength should be appropriate to avoid overwork. In general, the heart rate at the time of movement should be between 50% and 70% of the maximum heart rate (maximum heart rate = 220 – age). In the event of disorders such as pain, dizziness and breathing difficulties during the course of the exercise, the exercise should be stopped immediately and medical treatment should be provided in a timely manner. In the end, the exercise must be sustained and must not be able to catch fish for two days. Only through long-term commitment can the body continue to benefit and truly play its role in cancer control. In short, a reasonable health sport is a double-edged sword for cancer control, which is of irreplaceable importance for both cancer prevention and treatment and rehabilitation. Let us all act actively to integrate sport into everyday life, to write healthy with sweat, to fight cancer with persistence and embrace a vibrant and hopeful future.
