☆ Running for the bus or hurrying up the stairs for just 3 minutes a day may lower your risk of cancer, study says

Moving quickly, even for as little as three minutes a day, may lower your risk of developing more than 10 types of cancer, a new study found. "They called it 'vigorous intermittent lifestyle physical activity,' so they weren't specifically saying exercise. Little things like taking the stairs and parking farther away from your destination may be very helpful in terms of cancer prevention, Crane tells CNBC Make It. Moving quickly for three to four minutes each day was linked to a 17% to 18% lower risk of developing cancer, and a nearly 30% lower risk of developing one of the 13 types of cancers the study focused on. "In fact, people who are able to have these bursts of energy throughout their day, of activity, seem to see protection from it."
