The article mentions over-treatment, and I haven't looked into statistics for over-diagnosis of prostate cancer, but for two members in my family, their doctors preferred the wait-and-see method which lead to untreatable cancer in one case and a near-miss delayed treatment in another. I’d rather be alive, but these doctors appeared more focused on the side effects of prostate removal on sex and incontinence. Any improved method of detecting when dangerous cancer in the prostate needs to be removed would help to clear up priorities for both doctor’s and patients. |

Still havent seen any mention of zinc being useful for the prostrate.
