Prescribing exercise for hepatitis.
Physical exercise induces effects involving various organ systems in the body. These changes are both immediate and permanent. Such adaptations and changes will be beneficial for most individuals, provided they are included within a physical activity regimen suited to conform to the status and needs of each target subject. This is specially relevant when exercise is prescribed for a person who is suffering from a liver condition, and who in addition is receiving drug therapy.
