Does eating less red meat help reduce risk prostate cancer recurrence?

Great post!
I not only consider my dietary choices in terms of reducing the possibility of recurrence, but also as a critical component to being at the peak of health in order to be able to qualify for and survive existing and future treatments for recurrence.
Health benefits aside, I'll take the multitude of amazing colors, flavors and textures a largely plant based diet delivers through simple recipes from around the globe bursting with flavors from diverse blends of herbs and seasonings. Thanks, PCa, for bringing the most amazing cuisine into my life! It sounds silly, but it's how I feel because I love to eat tasty well-seasoned foods! At 6'4" and 190 lbs, 120 g of plant based food (no powders or supplements) and 10 cups of mostly fresh fruits and veggies per day accompanied by nuts and whole grains calls for a wide variety of tasty recipes!!

I am with you, Bill! I was veering towards veganism for a number of years, anyway, for a variety of reasons -- primarily, my personal health. Once I read about my elevated PSA in mid-May and researched optimal diet/nutrition for addressing prostate cancer, I happily made the switch. I learned that dairy products are not helpful, may even play a role in causing cancer to become aggressive. Giving up cheese and yogurt was the hardest for me, but at this point in time, I am fine and happy. Increased my daily exercise practices, added meditation, and revamped my "diet" accordingly. Pura Vida!

Us 6’4” people are 1 in 100.. I like to stay at 189, pretty close.
For lunch, I fill a 10 inch bowl to the top with Romaine, Kale, Tomatoes, Artichoke hearts, Green onions, Avocado and little bay shrimp. Olive Oil, red wine vinegar and anchovy dressing.
Lots of brown rice at dinner with chicken or fish and vegetables. My wife makes a great broccoli with stewed tomatoes in it.
For breakfast sugar free organic cereal with high protein, Almonds and pistachios in it. Oat milk without sugar.
Never eat until full.
