What may be key that the researchers here are missing is that exercise increases the level of testosterone in the body, which also increases muscle mass and reduces body fat. The percentage of body fat increases with menopause and the level of testosterone decreases with menopause. So consistent exercise is a simple (but not always easy) way to reduce risk.
