Guest guest Posted December 23, 2004 Report Share Posted December 23, 2004 Hi folks: If, as I have hypothesized here recently, the link between ALA and prostate cancer is aflatoxin, then plant products that are never affected by aflatoxin might represent safe sources of ALA. ALA definitely has clear benefits for CVD which it would be nice to take advantage of (not that WE need it) if it were possible to do so without increasing the risk of advanced prostate cancer. Are walnuts ever infected with aflatoxin? My guess is probably not. My guess is that flax can be when grown, or stored, in excessively damp conditions. If anyone has good information on which food products that contain ALA and are not affected by aflatoxin it would be helpful. Thanks folks. Rodney.
