Tomato sauce '保護するs against prostate 癌'

By JAMES CHAPMAN, Daily Mail

A 選び出す／独身 serving of tomato sauce each day appears to slow the 進歩 of prostate 癌, によれば 研究.

The 重要な to the 力／強力にする of the tomato is a 構内／化合物 called lycopene, which gives it its red pigment.

While previous 研究 has 焦点（を合わせる）d on the health-giving 影響s of 補足（する）s 含む／封じ込めるing high doses of the 構内／化合物, scientists at the University of Illinois in Chicago decided to see whether eating small 量s of tomatoes could also 証明する 有益な.

Phyllis Bowen, professor of human 栄養, and her 同僚, Dr Longwen Chen, 熟考する／考慮するd a group of 32 prostate 癌 患者s who ate one tomato sauce-based pasta dish daily for three weeks before they were scheduled to have 外科.

The diet appeared to slow the 進歩 of the 病気 and may also 妨げる tumours developing.

Other forms of tomato, 含むing ketchup and pizza toppings, are thought to have the same 影響.

The 研究員s 手段d levels of PSA (prostate 明確な／細部 antigen) in the 血 - a 警告 調印する of the 病気 - both before the tomato diet and afterwards.

They also analysed prostate tissue 除去するd during 外科 and 手段d for 調印するs of デオキシリボ核酸 損失 associated with the 形式 of malignant tumours. A high level of lycopene was 現在の in the prostate tissue of 患者s on the tomato diet and デオキシリボ核酸 損失 was 減ずるd by 28 per cent.

PSA levels were 減ずるd by 17.5 per cent, although the 研究員s said more 熟考する／考慮するs were needed to 決定する whether lycopene was responsible.

'We're encouraged by the results of this 熟考する／考慮する,' said Professor Bowen, whose findings are published in the 定期刊行物 of the 国家の 癌 学校／設ける. 'The lower prostate デオキシリボ核酸 損失 in men 消費するing tomato sauce 示唆するs a 役割 for tomato sauce and かもしれない for lycopene in the 予防 and 治療 of prostate 癌.'

She （人命などを）奪う，主張するd the 熟考する／考慮する was the first to 産する／生じる signifi cant results from a tomato-rich diet rather than lycopene 補足（する）s.

In the UK, 20,000 men are 診断するd with prostate 癌 each year. The 病気 kills 9,500 毎年 and the （死傷者）数 is likely to 二塁打 in the next 15 years. Two years ago, the Daily Mail's Dying of 当惑 （選挙などの）運動をする raised 認識／意識性 of the 病気 and readers 寄付するd £1million for 研究 in only four months.
