Vitamin in Prostate Cancer


A vitamin is an organic substance that is either water-soluble or fat-soluble. Vitamins are necessary in trace amounts in the human body for normal biological functions. Though who are deficient in vitamins may be at a greater risk for developing diseases such as cancer. Notably, in the case of prostate cancer, those who have had deficiencies in vitamin or are smokers and have taken vitamin E supplements have shown reduced risk for developing the disease.
