Exercise for Chronic Disease Relief

Suffering that comes from chronic disease can sometimes be eased simply by exercising. While being physically active in general can certainly do good, there are actually types of exercises that can be beneficial to those with specific chronic diseases.
Currently, there are three basic categories of exercise:
Aerobic Exercise helps raise your heart rate through repetitive movement of large muscles. (e.g. walking, swimming, etc.)
Strength Training Exercise helps increase the power, tone and efficiency of individual muscles by contracting isolated muscles against resistance (e.g. weight lifting)
Stretching helps improve or maintain the flexibility of your muscles.
One or more of these different types of exercises can help with the following:
Heart Disease (Aerobic)High Cholesterol (Aerobic)Diabetes (Aerobic and Strength)High Blood Pressure (Aerobic and Strength)Stroke (Aerobic, Strength Training and Stretching)Cancer (Aerobic and Strength Training)Lung Disease (Aerobic)
As always, please consult with your doctor before starting any exercise routine.
