Daily acetaminophen and brisk walks a benefit in lowering prostate cancer risk

Researchers have discovered that taking Tylenol every day, combined with a brisk walk, can significantly lower a man’s risk of developing prostate cancer. From Time.com: Pop a Tylenol and take a brisk walk for protection against prostate cancer? That’s what the findings of two new studies published this week suggest. In the first study, published Monday in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers and Prevention, scientists found that men who took a daily dose of acetaminophen (Tylenol) for five years had a 38% lower risk of developing prostate cancer, compared with other men. Additionally, daily acetaminophen was associated with a 51% reduced risk of developing an aggressive form of the disease. Men who took acetaminophen for less than five years saw no protective benefit.
