The news about the power of exercise against cancer just keeps getting better. Two new studies reinforce evidence that working out plays an important role in helping prevent aggressive cancer, and helping to keep it from advancing further. Muscle strength, cardiac fitness and cancer First, in Jan. 2025 the British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM) keep reading

The strategy of using active surveillance (AS) is increasingly recommended to low-risk prostate cancer (PCa) patients as a way to avoid or delay overtreatment. This is a new way of thinking; before the New Millennium, PCa was assumed to be multi-focal and most men with more than 10 years of life expectancy were hurried into surgery or radiation. Today’s terminology includes words that might have been meaningless a decade ago, e.g. indolent cancer, very low risk disease, and focal disease are all consistent with the growing movement toward AS. keep reading

If you’ve ever been involved in a simulation game, or a simulation training model, you are interacting with something that’s not really there but feels like it is. In fact, during the experience the same neurons in the brain are activated as if the simulation IS the real world. Thus, the brain can be functionally keep reading
