Selenium May Help Prevent Prostate Cancer
A recent federally sponsored study published by researchers at Stanford University confirmed that higher blood levels of selenium were associated with lower risks of prostate cancer. Selenium is a trace element supplied by certain foods and dietary supplements. The study showed that men with low blood levels of selenium are four to five times more likely to develop prostate cancer. The study also showed that selenium levels in the blood decreased with age - a fact that was not previously known. Source: www.jurology.com
