A new study has suggested that people who exercise in the morning between 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. may be less likely to develop cancers than those who exercise later in the day.
Research has shown that doing recreational exercise can reduce a person’s risk of developing many different cancers.
This information is important because of the high numbers of people who develop cancer and the significant number who die of the disease. For example, in the United States, scientists estimate that by the end of 2020, 1,806,590 people will receive a diagnosis of cancer, while 606,520 people will die from the disease.
Given the large numbers of people who develop cancer, even a change as small as changing the time a person exercises could make a significant contribution to reducing the impact of cancer across a whole population.
As of 2018, 46.7% of adults in the U.S. did not meet the minimum aerobic physical activity guidelines. Increasing physical activity and optimizing when it is most effective might be a possible way of reducing the prevalence of cancer in society.
RESPECTED SCIENTIFIC JOURNALS PUBLICLY OPPOSE TRUMP
In an unprecedented move, a number of high profile scientific and medical journals have declared their opposition to President Donald Trump in the upcoming 2020 election. In this article, we take a look at their reasoning.
Historically, journals of this ilk rarely dip their toes into the political world, but, in this most unusual year, they have made an exception.
The editors of NEJM explain how the U.S. leads the world in terms of both Covid-19 cases and deaths, summarizing, “In general, not only have many democracies done better than the U.S., but they have also outperformed us by orders of magnitude.”
The authors then ask why the U.S. has “handled this pandemic so badly.” Despite “tremendous manufacturing capacity [and] a biomedical research system that is the envy of the world,” the U.S. has experienced the full force of SARS-CoV-2.
