Daily chores which make you huff and puff for just four MINUTES might slash your risk of cancer

Daily chores which make you huff and puff for just four MINUTES might slash your risk of cancer Short bursts of daily activity that make you huff and puff — such as playing high-energy games with children — could reduce the risk of cancer, research suggests.

According to the study, a total of just four-and-a-half minutes of vigorous activity — done in bursts of around one minute each - during daily tasks could reduce the overall risk of cancer by 18 per cent, and the risk of some cancers linked to physical activity by up to 32 per cent. The Daily Mail
