Mediterranean diet the best prevention against prostate cancer

INTRO: Men who consume colourful fruits and vegetables on a regular basis are less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer (PC), according to new research by University of South Australia scientists. A rainbow of foods rich in certain micronutrients helps to prevent prostate cancer (PC) as well as speed up recovery among men who undergo radiation treatment for the disease.

EXCERPT: . . . The article also suggests that one reason anal sex might be more dangerous for women is that women have lower anal canal pressure. Interestingly, low pressure in the anal canal is actually cited as a risk factor for constipation, which isn’t quite the polar opposite of faecal incontinence but arguably, quite a different problem altogether. If I wanted to be pedantic, long term constipation can in extreme cases lead to faecal incontinence due to internal damage, and constipation and faecal incontinence can coexist in the same patient, but we’re at real risk of going off on a tangent that would ruin the narrative flow of this article.

The original paper also claimed that rates of faecal incontinence is higher among women who have anal sex and references Markland et al. Markland et al does state that, yes, faecal incontinence is more common in women who have anal sex compared to women who do not report having had anal sex. However, what Gana and Hunt fail to mention is that the paper also reports the same for men. In fact, when looking at the data in that article, there is a greater increase in the reports of faecal incontinence among men who report having had anal sex than there is among women who report having had anal sex. So it appears to me that there is no good anatomical reason that anal sex should present more of an injury risk for people assigned female at birth than it would for those assigned male at birth...
