Prostate Cancer and Vegetarian Diet

Prostate cancer has been strongly linked to meat consumption.

  • In a study of nearly 48,000 men aged between 40 and 75, those eating red meat five or more times a week were 2.6 times more likely to suffer from prostate cancer than those who ate it once a week or less.
  • Another study looked at the incidence of prostate cancer amongst 14,000 Seventh Day Adventists and found a relationship between increased risk and increasing animal product consumption.
