Veterans exposed to Agent Orange have a 48% increased risk of prostate cancer recurrence following surgery than their unexposed peers - when the disease recurs, it seems more aggressive. Agent Orange contains the carcinogen, dioxin, which can be stored in body fat and is believed to make its way into the cell nucleus and work as a tumor promoter.
