Unfortunately, there are too many conflicting and misleading studies and opinions posted, from very credible resouces....each with their own agenda.
I have advanced prostate cancer, and am going into my 4th year of remission. So far, surviving seems to be a crap shoot with a lot of variables. This is what I am concentrating on:
- avoiding selenium and vitamin B2 and vitamin E supplements
- avoiding most processed food and meat
- avoiding saturated fats
- avoiding most dairy, except certain cheeses (mozzerella/swiss)
- eating berries every day
- eating my veggies every day
- eating 1.5 ounches of nuts (avoid brazil nuts) every night
- drinking a lot of water
- avoiding alcohol
- drinking 2 cups of coffee each morning
- eating low fat/saturated far peanut butter every morning
- eating as much plant based and whole grain as possible
- eating omega 3 enriched seafood whenever possible
Support from family, staying positive and praying doesnt hurt either.
Every 3 months I swet the blood work results, and ct scan results every 6 months. Dont believe non credible resources, and talk to your oncologist, not Dr. GOOGLE!
Thank you for sharing that link. In the article, Dr Kenfield recommends eating a maximum of 2 eggs/week (if you're including the yolk) and avoiding high-fat dairy, but also says that "Low-fat and non-fat dairy are not consistently associated with bad prostate cancer outcomes."
That said, there's nothing wrong with choosing to consume non-dairy products like oat milk, so if you prefer it, go for it! For a lot of people, it might even improve their digestive health, because many people have trouble with lactose.
