There are pathologies that no one would ever want to contract, but which unfortunately affect a large slice of the population. Cancers are certainly among these and are among the most brutal. One of the most common is that of the prostate. Fortunately, science in recent years has made enormous progress in treating this type of disease and dying becomes more difficult. In any case, any tumor should not be underestimated and even before treating it it would be good to prevent it.
But how can we limit the chances of contracting prostate cancer? First of all by resorting to proper nutrition, combined with a healthy lifestyle. They will have told us over and over again, on television or in person. At ProiezionidiBorsa, however, we want to go into details and indicate a specific solution directly from the table. Read on to find out which one it is.
Risks and prevention of too frequent a disease
Taking the estimates of the Airc, it turns out to our will that until a few years ago prostate cancer was common in men. We are talking about 20% of all cancers diagnosed up to 2017. Even if the chances of death are low, 1 in 8 people could get prostate cancer in Italy.
The factors that increase the risk are common to those of other types of cancer. Above all, obesity, smoking, alcohol and a sedentary lifestyle. In a small percentage, hereditary factors may also come into play. For preventive purposes it is recommended in particular constant physical exercise, one diet low in fat and controlled consumption of calcium.
Few people know that this antioxidant drink could prevent prostate cancer
The solution to limit the chances of contracting this pathology can therefore come from the table. Specifically, there is a drink, loved by many and demonized by as many, which seems to be able to turn into a good help in this case. It is none other than red wine. Few people know that this antioxidant drink could prevent prostate cancer.
We pay close attention, because we have specified the type of wine not by chance. In fact, recent studies seem to validate the hypothesis that moderate consumption of red wine lowers the chances of contracting this tumor by up to 12%. On the contrary, with white wine it seems the opposite effect is obtained. The merits, although not certain, should go to flavonoids and resveratrol, antioxidant substances contained in red.
Hence, taking a break from time to time with a good glass of wine in hand would do us good. In any case, a conscious consumption of alcohol is encouraged, in order to meet health problems.
