(NAPSA)—There’s good news and bad news about the fight against prostate cancer. A leading expert on the disease describes the current state of affairs with two words: “encouraging” and “disgraceful.” “Prostate cancer deaths have dropped from nearly 40,000 a year to about 30,000 in 2008. That’s encouraging,” says Claude Gerard, president of the American Prostate Society. “But prostate cancer death can be prevented. When wedon’t prevent something that kills about 30,000 men every year, that’s disgraceful.” Fortunately, men may have a new weaponto fight prostate cancer and an even deadlier killer, cardiovascular/heart conditions. Called Malegard,it’s an all-natural supplement that contains vitamin E in an alpha, beta, delta and gamma complex, selenium, zinc, beta-sitosterol, lycopene andlittleknown but ultra-powerful OPC. Dr. Ross Z. Pierpont recently published the results of a study of men who took Malegard daily for various lengths of time starting in 1999. All men wereat risk of cancer and heart/brain attacks due to their ages—49% to 85. The study found: No heart attacks; No cancer except two unrelated skin cancers; One man suffered a stroke from which he recovered; and No prostatitis.
