(NC)-Lung cancer, the most preventative of all
human cancers, remains the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women.
Several studies have shown that vitamin E supplementation is associated with a
lower risk of developing lung cancer in non-smokers. Unfortunately, the same
benefit was not seen in smokers. The most effective health action for smokers is
still to stop smoking.
It is believed that the beneficial effect of
vitamin E is a consequence of its antioxidant role, which may be enhanced when
taken in combination with
other antioxidants such as vitamin C,
beta-carotene and selenium. All of these nutrients are available in a quality
multivitamin such as Centrum®, available in your local pharmacy. For more
information on supplementation, visit www.centrumvitamins.ca.
