Omega 3 contained in nuts helps to have prostate cancer


Nuts are a rich source of food, including omega-3 fatty acids , which are also found in more expensive foods such as salmon, gamma tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, polyphenols and antioxidants.

University of California-Davis have demonstrated for the first time that walnuts reduce the size and growth rate of prostate cancer in animals. The results of their study were made public during the national meeting of the American Chemical Society being held this week in San Francisco (United States).

Nuts are a rich source of food, including omega-3 fatty acids, which are also found in more expensive foods such as salmon, gamma tocopherol, a form of vitamin E, polyphenols and antioxidants.

explains Paul Davis, director of research, "the nuts should be part of a healthy diet for the prostate, a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits and vegetables. "In fact, studies show that tomatoes and grapefruit juice also reduce the risk of prostate cancer.

Scientists have recently shown that nuts could fight heart disease by lowering levels of endothelin, a substance that increases the inflammation of blood vessels. This effect was added to the reduced blood levels of bad cholesterol, cholesterol, low density lipoprotein or LDL. Since that people with prostate cancer have elevated levels of endothelin, the scientists decided to test whether consumption of walnuts could be beneficial in prostate cancer.

Davis and his team fed mice, genetically programmed to develop prostate cancer, the equivalent to 14 walnuts daily for two months. A control group of mice got the same diet but with soybean oil. Mice fed with nuts developed prostate cancer were 50 percent smaller than those of control mice. These cancers also grew 30 percent slower.

As if this were not enough, genetic analysis showed that walnuts also had large beneficial effects on genes involved in growth control tumor.
