More than an hour of exercise a week after thirty years will help reduce the risk of breast cancer in women, according to American scientists.

A team of scientists from the University of North Colorado interviewed 4296 women for physical activity during the main periods of life: 10 to 15 years, 15 to 30 years, 30 to 50 years, 50 years and older.

It turned out that there was no significant difference among women under the age of 30, but there were more cases of breast cancer in women older than 30 if they were inactive and did not exercise.

Specialists concluded that the minimum exercise time per week should be at least an hour to reduce the risk of breast cancer. Scientists advise women older than 30 years to lead an active lifestyle, thereby saving themselves from the occurrence of breast cancer and other diseases.
