Prostate troubles (was: Soy and BPH)

[Guest guest]

I hope all you guys who are concerned about prostate cancer are eating your

tomatoes COOKED , with a bit of fat (such as olive oil) as in tomato sauce.

That's the way to get the lycopene and although most people are aware of the

protective nature of tomatoes, they don't understand the rest of the story.

(Hmmm, wonder if the Italian population has a lower incidence of prostate

cancer???)
