Cancer-related fatigue can last throughout treatment and into remission, but a new study has found that exercise may be the key to fighting this exhaustion.
The study reviewed 113 past trials that included more than 11,000 adult cancer patients—80 percent of which were women—with an average age of 54. It revealed that exercise alone, or with the addition of behavioral and educational therapy, appeared to be more effective in treating cancer-related fatigue than prescription medications.
