Men sitting in offices are prone to prostate cancer

Guys who work at the table all day will be more likely to develop prostate cancer than manual workers.

Scientists have investigated whether levels of physical activity are related to the development of malignant tumors.

Men who work as teachers, office workers and civilians are at higher risk of cancer than those who travel, such as workers, bakers, barbers.

Results confirmed that regular exercise reduces the risk of prostate cancer.

The group at the University of Athens, Greece, learned 320 people were sick and compared with other healthy men. These people are asked about the type of work. The results showed that men with idle office jobs had a 30% increase in cancer risk and a 40% increase in their ability to develop BPH (benign prostatic hyperplasia). This is a common condition when the prostate gland enlarges, making it difficult to urinate. Although it is not life-threatening, surgery is still needed.

The risk of prostate cancer usually increases with age, with men over age 50 more susceptible to disease. Genetics is also a related factor.

Another study found that a diet rich in broccoli may help prevent this disease.
