It probably comes to late for actor
Dennis Hopper, reporter
Bryant Gumbel probably won't be helped by the news nor movie star
Nick Nolte and we've long since made known the earlier results in our July coffee health benefits
story. The story that "
Coffee drinking linked to significantly lowered risk of prostate cancer" has been the lead story on CBS News from
Boston, Chicago
(WATCH), Los Angeles
(WATCH),
San Antonio to India:
"The research involved 50,000 males over 20 years old. Kathryn Wilson, a scientist at the Channing Laboratory at Harvard, led the study. Her team found out that 5% of the men, who had at least 6 cups of coffee a day, had a 60% lower risk of obtaining the more complex form of the disease than those who had no coffee. Those who consumed 4 to 5 cups a day had a 25% lower risk, while those who drank 1 to 3 cups had a 20% lower risk. This is the first study to disprove the belief that prostate cancer and coffee are not connected in any way. Wilson and her colleagues used a different approach, that is, by looking at the link between the drink and the different stages of prostate cancer, instead of treating them as a single entity. However, more research needs to be done to confirm their findings, she said."
Though India is more associated with tea than coffee. Their reporting dealt with the recent research on prostate cancer in connection with our old "nemesis" exercise:
"[T]he researchers found that men who walked four or more hours a week had a 23 percent lower risk of all-cause mortality compared to men who walked less than 20 minutes per week. Men who walked 90 or more minutes at a normal to brisk pace had a 51 percent lower risk of death from any cause than men who walked less than 90 minutes at an easy walking pace. Walking didn’t show any effect on prostate cancer specific mortality, but more strenuous exercising did. Men who engaged in five or more hours of vigorous physical activity a week were at a decreased risk of dying from their prostate cancer." - IndiaTimes
DNA or no DNA "optimum health" is still and probably will always be related to some amount of strenuous exercise. If you or someone you knows needs treatment for prostate cancer the gold standard for care in the area is with following
DC hospitals: "Howard, Providence, and Walter Reed". To see the seven (7) results for the state of
Maryland, the seven (7) results for the state of
North Carolina, and the thirteen (13) results for the state of
Virginia. The Gold Seal is issued by the
Joint Commission:

So enjoy your extra cup of "joe" just remember how you
sweeten it can affect your health though thankfully it might have no effect on your prostate.
