Chemical in Beer May Prevent Prostate Cancer
Posted: 2009-12-10 by Mike G

Beer-drinking men may be reducing their chances of developing prostate cancer with every pint, tests by scientists have revealed. Chemical In Beer May Prevent Prostate Cancer

Experiments have shown that xanthohumol, a compound derived from the hops in beer, blocks a chemical reaction that can lead to the development of cancer.

The disease is usually treated with drugs that act in a similar way.

Study leader Dr Clarissa Gerhausa, from the German Cancer Research Centre in Heidelberg, said: "We hope that one day we can demonstrate that xanthohumol prevents prostate cancer development, first in animal models and then in humans, but we are just at the beginning."

Xanthohumol is a powerful antioxidant, known to have anti-cancer properties. It is also found in fruits and spices.

It was previously suggested that the compound could reduce the chances of females getting breast cancer.

Scientists now believe a similar reaction could affect men.

Further research involving rats showed that xanthohumol reduced the effects of hormone signalling in prostate tissue.

Edition V4.05: You went and did what!?!

Well!!!!  Fan-fucking-tastic!  New partner, sends in communications details to have partnership setup.  Cool.  Start setting up interconnect, and get an email - did you get the document we sent?  The fuck?  Already sent it before you are setup.  This is the equivalent of going to the gas station and pumping gas into a car that you haven’t bought yet.  Assholes.

So I get them setup lickety split.  Ask for a new document to be sent.  Send the exact same fucking one, triggering an error in the communication software.  Splendid I say.  Ugh.  This is day one.  And they pulled the EXACT same shit the last time.
