Exercise is Good Medicine provides a compelling overview of three specific medically related benefits of exercise. First, the DVD examines the fact that exercise protects your heart during the insult of a heart attack. Second, the DVD points out that exercise can reduce the sino-toxicity associated with chemotherapy, particularly what chemotherapy does to both heart and skeletal muscle. Finally, the DVD discusses the fact that exercise causes the browning of adipose tissue, a factor that may have several very important health benefits.

Among the topics covered:
  • Exercise is good medicine
  • Human epidemiological studies suggest that exercise is cardioprotective
  • Mechanisms responsible for exercise-induced cardioprotection
  • Chemotherapy cardiomyopathy
  • Browning of adipose tissue
  • Take-home messages
