Can 1 drug prevent 26 conditions?

Is there such a drug that can treat 26 conditions or diseases?

Certainly not in the form of a pill, but one thing nearly everyone has access to is….exercise.

Sadly, most adults are do not meet the required amount of aerobic or muscle strengthening exercise necessary to prevent or treat medical conditions or diseases.

Here’s a list:

..”psychiatric diseases (depression, anxiety, stress, schizophrenia); neurological diseases (dementia, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis); metabolic diseases (obesity, hyperlipidemia, metabolic syndrome, polycystic ovarian syndrome, type 2 diabetes, type 1 diabetes); cardiovascular diseases (hypertension, coronary heart disease, heart failure, cerebral apoplexy, and claudication intermittent); pulmonary diseases (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, cystic fibrosis); musculo-skeletal disorders (osteoarthritis, osteoporosis, back pain, rheumatoid arthritis); and cancer.”  https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/s…​​

When was the last time you went to the doctor for other than a check up and the number one thing he/she ordered was exercise?

The doctor may have said “watch what you eat and exercise” and likely added “make sure you fill this prescription and take your pill daily.”

You have more control over your health than you’ve been led to believe.

Pills are great and lifesaving sometimes, but prevention is better when possible.

It’s very likely that conditions or diseases/illness you have can improve or be eliminated with regular physical activity.

Muscle contraction releases powerful myokines (cytokines and proteins synthesized and secreted by myocytes in response to muscle contraction. Myokines exert an autocrine function in regulating muscle metabolism as well as a paracrine/endocrine regulatory function on distant organs and tissues, such as bone, adipose tissue, brain and liver. Physical activity is the primary physiological stimulus for bone anabolism (and/or catabolism) through the production and secretion of myokines, such as IL-6, irisin, IGF-1, FGF2, beside the direct effect of loading. Importantly, exercise-induced myokine can exert an anti-inflammatory action that is able to counteract not only acute inflammation due to an infection, but also a condition of chronic low-grade inflammation raised as consequence of physical inactivity, aging or metabolic disorders (i.e., obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus). https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31952571/​​
