High doses of B vitamins can dramatically increase the risk of lung cancer in men who smoke, US researchers claim.

Compared with non-users, male smokers taking 55 microgram daily supplements of vitamin B12 for 10 years were four times more likely to develop the disease, a new study has found.

Those taking more than 20mg per day of vitamin B6 over the same time period tripled their chances of being diagnosed with lung cancer.

Scientists looked at data on more than 77,000 participants in the Vital (Vitamins and Lifestyle) study, a major US investigation of the impact of vitamin and mineral supplements on cancer risk.

I occasionally take multi vitamins but I am not convinced they are a good thing, which is why I do it so intermittently. I mainly do so because I cannot grow my own vegies anymore and so much of the natural element is lost in what we buy due to storage etc.

I think that if we eat a good and healthy diet for most of the time we are fine. Our bodies tell us what we need too. We don't have to read the ever changing opinions of what we should or should not eat or do. We should just know.

There you have what exactly?

I was told that 10 minutes a day in the sunshine was all we needed! Plus the pills.

I actually think that "block out" or whatever to stop "skin cancer" from getting burned on the beach is probably one reason that people are Vitamin D deficient.

Why the hell are we all getting hetup about this anyway? Everybody has known people who were the "fittest", ate well, never used alcohol and so forth who SUDDENLY dropped dead! Shock Horror. As I said elsewhere DEAD IS DEAD. When your time is up, your time is UP. End of.

Sorry everyone....still very crook here with that bloody Influenza A gastro virus.

It's just ridiculous.

I'm rinsing everything we touch in the kitchen with boiling water ie plates and cutlery.

I've got fortified bleach and disinfectant sub stations in the kitchen/bathroom/laundry.

We're all on Tamiflu meds.

$50/pkt.

2nd round.

And yep...our washing washine is at breaking point.

Over it.....too worn out.

Please .....take care and stay safe.

It's apparently the worst flu virus season in Australia on record.

Could you please give my regards to those at OzPol who might be wondering why I'm MIA.

Sounds like you need some Vitamin D, Lisa

Research indicates that women with higher than average levels of Vitamin D in their blood have a lesser risk of all kinds of cancer.

sorry to hear that old girl...I am wondering if you are being over clean and sanitary I dont believe in all this disinfecting everything I really dont
I thinks its a marketing ploy to get you to spend your dollar on something that can in fact do more harm than good..

when you use all that bleach and disinfectant it kills all the good bacteria as well as the not so good...I am sure your home is as clean as an yone elses lisa... give yourself a break.. and sit down with a nice cup of tea...then a warm bed lots of water....no gin...and rest rest rest.....

btw you are not missing anything at ozpol its really dullsville.
