We all know that nicotine is very addictive and some people cannot quite quit the smoking habit. If you, or a loved one is looking for another reason to quit smoking, you may want to consider the results of this recent study. The study shows that there exists a link between the severity of prostate cancer and smoking. The study also states that there is a 1% increase in PSA levels (prostate specific antigen) which is a laboratory test done to screen for prostate cancer, for every pack- year of cigarettes smoked. However, nonsmokers were more likely to survive prostate cancer. So, if you have not yet quit, please consider this!
