Aaron Rodriguez+FollowWalking Beats Some Cancer Drugs?!Turns out, a simple habit like regular walking can boost colon cancer survival rates as much as some meds! In a huge international study, patients who stuck to a 3-year exercise program had 28% fewer cancer recurrences and 37% fewer deaths. The secret? A coach, some accountability, and just 45 minutes of walking a few times a week. It’s affordable, doable, and now backed by top-notch science. Who knew a stroll could be this powerful? #CancerSurvivor #HealthNews #ExerciseIsMedicine #Health170Share

Michelle Welch+FollowCancer Survivors Spill the Real TeaCancer care has come a long way, but survivors say there’s still so much we don’t talk about—like the hidden costs and the emotional rollercoaster. At an Axios event, two survivors-turned-advocates shared how their experiences are shaping better support for patients. The big takeaway? Early detection saves lives, but we need more research funding to keep the progress going. And yes, young people—cancer isn’t just an older person’s problem anymore! #CancerSurvivor #EarlyDetection #PatientAdvocacy #Health9239Share

Bottom line: it’s never too late to quit, and your future self will thank you! #CancerPrevention #QuitSmoking #HealthNews #CancerSurvivor #Wellness #Health40Share

itaylor+FollowWhy Cancer Hits Women Harder After RemissionJust learned women who survive cancer are way more likely than men to deal with crushing fatigue and depression—even years after treatment. The kicker? This makes it harder for them to stay active, which only makes things worse. Researchers think it’s a mix of biology, meds, and even social pressures. The good news: moderate exercise (think walking, not marathons) can seriously help with both energy and mood. More proof that surviving cancer is just the start of the journey. #CancerSurvivor #MentalHealth #WomensHealth #Wellness #HealthNews #Health264Share
