Well it will not prevent cancer but maybe the article was exposing the chemical composition in these items that would contribute to a better and healthier prostate. I believe that nature has many great healing or helpful agents that promote the healing process in alot of the health issues we are being presented with these days. Good for you that you found something so interesting and shared it with us. All the best to you.
