Uit wetenschappelijk onderzoek blijkt dat dit golfbeweegtraject mensenlevens kan redden:
Onderzoek JAMA . 2005 May 25;293(20):2479-86. Physical activity and survival after breast cancer diagnosis. Holmes et al.:
Minstens 3 à 5 uur wandelen is geassocieerd met een reductie van kankergerelateerde mortaliteit van 20 - 40% t.o.v. weinig of niet bewegen.
Onderzoek “Physical Activity in Cancer Prevention and Survival: A Systematic Review gepubliceerd in 2018 Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory Committee” Anne McTiernan, Christine M. Friedenreich, Peter T. Katzmarzyk, Kenneth E. Powell, Richard Macko, David Buchner, Linda S. Pescatello, Bonny Bloodgood, Bethany Tennant, Alison Vaux-Bjerke, Stephanie M. George, Richard P. Troiano, and Katrina L. Piercy:
A 2016 meta-analysis of ten cohorts found that highest versus lowest levels of post-diagnosis physical activity were associated with a 38 percent reduction in risk of breast cancer-specific mortality.
A 2016 meta-analysis including seven cohort studies showed a 42 percent reduced risk of all-cause mortality in colorectal cancer survivors with highest versus lowest levels of physical activity.
Estimates from a 2016 meta-analysis of three cohort studies found that highest versus lowest levels of physical activity were associated with a 38 percent reduction in risk for prostate cancer-specific mortality.
