Spicy Vitamin D

[Guest guest]

Capsaicin, which makes peppers hot, can cause prostate cancer cells

to kill themselves, U.S. and Japanese researchers said on Wednesday.

If this is true, then you would want to see if there was less prostate

cancer in cultures where they eat a lot of hot peppers, would you not?

(Or maybe it'll turn out that Mexican MICE don't have prostate cancer!)

Not necessarily as one of the main factors in prostate cancer is how

far south one lives. The father south the lower the cancer rates, and

the greater the appreciation of spicy foods. So the connection is there

but it is probably the sun the man receives and the vitamin D he gets

not the spiciness of the food.
