Sponsor's own description
Physical exercise along with gut microbiota improvement -because of probiotic intake- can improve the quality of life and immune system in breast cancer survivors. This is achieved because exercise improves the muscle mass in cancer patients (often reduced by treatment and/or inactivity), together with the gut microbiota improvement, this stimulates the inmune system function, improving the quality of life of these patients.
