Finnish medical experts studies have shown that a lack of vitamin D will significantly increase the risk of prostate cancer risk, and will accelerate the development of cancer. In particular, 40 to 50-year-old middle-aged man, if too little vitamin D levels, the possibility of prostate cancer will increase greatly.
The result is a University of Tampere Medical Research Institute of the past 13 years 19000 40-year-old to 58-year-old after follow-up study of Finnish men arrived at.
They published a research report that the sun's rays are the most important source of vitamin D. Less in light winter, the body levels of vitamin D may decrease. In the Finnish men participating in the survey, more than half of people in the winter may cause deficiency of vitamin D, they risk the possibility of prostate cancer is 1.8 times normal. The study also found that 40-year-old to 51-year-old male, if low vitamin D levels, their risk of prostate cancer up to 3.5 times the normal cancer 6.3 times higher risk of proliferation.
The researchers analyzed that the human body, high levels of vitamin D will help to curb the proliferation of prostate cancer cell division and to supplement vitamin D intake may become a way of treating prostate cancer.
They pointed out that two-thirds of the human body needs vitamin D from the sun, one-third from food. The role of solar UV is irreplaceable, and the summer should have more sun to store vitamin D, but to protect the skin. Of vitamin D from food intake is mainly through fish and milk products.
