Multivitamin prostate warning
Quote:
Taking lots of multivitamins may increase the risk of deadly prostate cancer, say US researchers.
A study in nearly 300,000 men showed taking multivitamins more than seven times a week increased the risk of advanced and fatal prostate cancer.

There was no link with early cancer or localised prostate cancer, the researchers wrote in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
