      Beer ingredient may help prevent prostate cancer

      Posted by Billbar from Seattle Times

      Oregon State University researchers say the compound xanthohumol, found in hops, may help prevent prostate cancer and enlargement. However, a person would have to drink more than 17 beers to benefit. Scientists in Germany have developed a beer that contains 10 times the amount of xanthohumol as traditional brews. The drink is being marketed as a healthy beer, but research is still under way to determine if it has any effect against cancer.
