Vitamin E Link To Prostate Cancer Warning
Men have been warned to be wary of vitamin E supplements after research showed they significantly increase the risk of prostate cancer.

A study of more than 35,000 men found that those taking a high dose were 17% more likely to be diagnosed with the cancer than men taking dummy pills.

The effect continued long after men stopped taking the supplement.

US researchers writing in The Journal of the American Medical Association said men should be sceptical of health claims made for vitamins.
