Prostate cancer risk reduced by fatty fish consumption, study shows electric brain stimulation improves memory, and more consumer health news from NewsTarget

Tucson, Ariz. – Men who eat just one serving of salmon per week reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer by 43 percent, compared to men who do not consume fish, according to new research published in the online edition of the International Journal of Cancer.

Researchers from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm examined the dietary habits of nearly 1,500 men with prostate cancer and more than 1,100 men without the disease. They found that men who ate fatty fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, at least once a week reduced their risk of prostate cancer by 43 percent, whereas men who did not eat fish of any kind experienced no risk reduction.

Also, a German study has found that passing electrodes at a certain frequency of electricity through a subject's brain while he or she is asleep can improve the individual's ability to remember words upon waking.
