Mineral Content as Cancer Predictor?

The article above discusses the ties between certain minerals, their presence in the body and possible links to the occurrence of cancer in men.

According to French researchers, the amount of copper, magnesium and zinc in the blood determines the risk of cancer in men.

Details on the study stated that “Zinc, copper and magnesium play a number of key roles in the body, for example in the immune response, inflammation and oxidative stress, Leone and her colleagues write in the research journal Epidemiology. To investigate the relationship between body levels of these elements and mortality, the researchers followed 4,035 men aged 30 to 60 for 18 years. During follow-up, 339 men died, including 176 from cancer and 56 from heart disease."
