The following article confirms benefits derived from regular consumption of vitamin K2, primarily from green leafy vegetable such as Lettuce, Spinach and Broccoli, not only in the prevention of PROSTATE CANCER but also in the management of it once you have it.

The more studies of this kind I find the happier I am as it confirms my long held belief that the answer to the cancer scourge will come from nature itself and not the chemical substitutes provided by big pharma and conventional medicine. With more research bodies and scientists than ever before now looking to confirm existing, well tried, holistic remedies and explore new ones we may yet have a chance to rid mankind of cancer.

09/04/2008- An increased intake of vitamin K2 may reduce the risk of prostate cancer by 35 per cent, suggest results from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC).

The potential benefits of K2 were more pronounced for advanced prostate cancer, while vitamin K1 intake did not offer any prostate benefits, report the researchers from the German Cancer Research Centre in Heidelberg.

The findings, based on data from the 11,319 men taking part in the EPIC Heidelberg cohort, are published in this month’s issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
