What if the cure to the disease you have been struggling is right under your nose? The French proves that exercise is probably the best remedy.

Nowadays it’s so easy to find a pill to calm whatever discomfort you are feeling, whether a mild headache or even something as serious as cancer. Basically, popping pills has become an easy and quick way to deal with a myriad of concerns.

But it’s time to get back to the basics and pave your own way to recovery simply by exercising. If you haven’t been keeping up with the recent medical news, science is coming up with more and more evidence showing that we are vulnerable to illnesses just for being physically inactive. For example, in the specific case of cystic fibrosis, regular exercise is the only effective drug to extend life expectancy.

Mon Stade is a France-based sports medicinal complex supported by the Regional Health Agency. In this centre, exercise is the holy grail to relieving patients from their chronic diseases and prevention measures for some conditions, namely diabetes, stroke and cancer.

How does it work?

Mon Stade teaches simple and effective exercises that can be done at home without the need of robust machines. Of course when you are facing a chronic disease, losing weight is probably the least of your concerns. Instead, patients aim to transform their deeper visceral fat to muscles and reduce the risk of getting sick.

Say goodbye to pills and carve some time out for a workout!
