A main ingredient in beer may help prevent prostate cancer and enlargement,according to a new study. But researchers say don't rush out to stock the refrigerator because the ingredient is present in such small amounts that a person would have to drink more than 17 beers to benefit.Oregon State University researchers say the compound xanthohumol, found in hops, inhibits a specific protein in the cells along the surface of the prostate gland. The protein acts like a signal switch that turns on a variety of animal and human cancers, including prostate cancer.

啤酒成份可能對抗攝護腺癌
一項新研究顯示,啤酒的一種主要成份可能有助於防止攝護腺癌及攝護腺腫大。但研究人員表示,別急著把冰箱堆滿啤酒,因為啤酒裡的這種成份含量極微小,得喝超過17瓶啤酒才可能收到抗癌效果。奧勒岡州立大學研究人員表示,(啤酒原料)蛇麻草中的一種化合物黃腐酚,能抑制攝護腺表面細胞中的一種特定蛋白質。這種蛋白質的作用類似訊號開關,可以啟動動物及人類身上的多種癌症發展,包括攝護腺癌在內。
