Andar de bibicleta e risco de cancro e doenças cardíacas?

Cycling To Work Cuts Risk Of 'Cancer, Heart Disease And Premature Death From Any Cause' | The Huffington Post

Citando:
"Cycling to work cuts the risk of developing heart disease and cancer by almost half, research suggests.

Walking to work is also good for you, although it does not offer the same benefits as taking a bike, experts from the University of Glasgow found.

The new study on 264,337 people, 52% of whom were women, found cycling to work is linked to 45% lower risk of developing cancer and a 46% lower risk of cardiovascular disease, compared to driving to work or taking public transport.

Overall, cyclists had a 41% lower risk of premature death from any cause."
