Can Diet Hold the
Key??
Studies are underway on the effects of eating
habits that correlate to higher than normal incidences
of Prostate Cancer. Although evidence is still
inconclusive, there are indications that populations
with low-fat, high-fiber, high-soy
diets are less prone to the
disease.
There is also some evidence of a lower
incidence of Prostate Cancer in men who eat lots of
tomato-based foods, especially tomato sauce
cooked with a little olive oil.
Surprisingly, there has been a fairly high
correlation between families where breast cancer is
found to also find prostate cancer. This may be
attributable to the eating patterns of these families
which produce a higher risk for developing these types
of cancer.

"Other Information" for discussions on
research which shows the apparent link between various
diets and the development of cancer.
