Do you have risk factors for developing Prostate Cancer? If you are at risk, then you need to change your lifestyle!
When it comes to diet, a more nutritious diet may help prevent the development of Prostate Cancer. Research shows that a compound called lycopene, which gives some foods their deep colour, may decrease the risk of Prostate Cancer.
Vitamin E is another nutrient which may help reduce risk.
Include these foods in your diet:
- Tomatoes in any form – fresh, tinned whole tomato for sauces & stews, tomato sauce & tomato juice
- Papaya, watermelon and ruby grapefruit
- Green leafy veg e.g. dark lettuce for salad, spinach & kale
- Nuts, seeds and olive oil
- Follow a balanced diet with a low salt and low alcohol intake
