Cancer is a multi-complex condition that affects many people spreading across many populations. The disease has been, and still is, widely studied, yet, much has yet to be uncovered regarding the condition. In this podcast, led by Mohamed, we aim to explore recent literature surrounding the role of exercise in cancer patients and how exercise may or may not be beneficial in treating symptoms associated with different types of cancer.
