Your Diet Can Reduce Your Risk of Prostate Cancer
Posted By dale on July 17, 2009
A new review assessed whether certain modifications in diet have a beneficial effect on the prevention of prostate cancer. Results suggest that a diet high in fruits and vegetables is beneficial in preventing and treating the cancer.Researchers conducted an evidence-based review of dietary recommendations in the prevention of prostate cancer as well as in the management of patients with prostate cancer.
The consumption of tomatoes, cauliflower, broccoli, green tea, and vitamins including Vitamin E and selenium SEEMED to lead to a decreased risk of prostate cancer. Consumption of highly processed or charcoaled meats seemed to be correlated with prostate cancer.
The power of food in normalizing chronic disease and helping you achieve optimal health is quite profound.So I’m always heartened and encouraged when I see a study where the authors conclude:
“Although not conclusive, results suggest that general dietary modification has a beneficial effect on the prevention of prostate cancer.
In patients with prostate cancer, dietary therapy allows patients to be an active participant in their treatment.”
You simply cannot underestimate the power of your diet. If you put garbage in, disease will thrive. Eat a healthy, balanced diet, and your body will thank you with a longer, healthier life.
