Prostate cancer (prostate cancer) is the most common malignant tumor of male reproductive system. Its incidence increases with age, and its incidence rate has obvious regional differences, which is higher in Europe and America. It is reported that lung cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in men. In China, the incidence rate was low before, but due to the aging of the population, the incidence rate has increased in recent years. At the same time, due to the continuous improvement of the diagnostic methods for prostate cancer, such as the radioimmunoassay of acid phosphatase, the determination of lactate dehydrogenase in prostate fluid, transrectal ultrasound, CT and the improvement of prostate puncture needle, prostate cancer can be diagnosed early, and the incidence rate of prostate cancer has also increased.
A research report published by American scientists shows that drinking one or two glasses of red wine a day can help men reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
Researchers from the University of Alabama in the United States found that the risk of fatal prostate cancer in rats was reduced by 87% after feeding them with resveratrol, an antioxidant contained in red wine; Even if those mice had prostate cancer, the risk of tumor in their bodies was relatively small. The research results show that taking resveratrol is not only beneficial to the heart, but also has "powerful chemical prevention effect". "I drink a glass of red wine every night because I'm worried about prostate cancer," said Lamartinier, the research director. A study by the University of Alabama last year also found that resveratrol is not only good for men, but also can significantly reduce women's risk of breast cancer..
Researchers said that a small amount of regular drinking is good for health, while more than the same amount is bad for health. Of course, the definition of standard alcohol consumption is slightly different in different countries.
When drinking, it is better to eat other foods at the same time, and do not drink on an empty stomach. Wine is superior to Baijiu. Pay attention to the calories contained in alcohol. One liang of Baijiu is equivalent to three liang of rice calories. Beer and fruit wine also contain other energy substances, so special attention should be paid to the impact of drinking on weight. When family members drink together, the amount is easy to control, and small drinks can be encouraged, but avoid excessive drinking. In working relationships or gatherings between friends, try to avoid drinking without drinking, drink less without drinking more, drink less without drinking more, and try not to be too strong or hard on others.
