  • Protect and improve brain and organ functions
  • Develop or maintain bone, muscle and connective tissues
  • Promote healthy immune system function
  • Promote faster wound healing
  • Maintain or lower medication doses
  • Improve the severity of disease

In my professional opinion, there isn’t a chronic condition that exercise cannot help
