It’s interesting that you should say that. The weekly newsletter I get from ancan.org Had an article from one of the guys that is the moderator on the low and intermediate Forum.
He is the publisher of the Welness Letter which discusses many health issues. Here are his findings about dietary supplements and prostate cancer.
When we look closely at the research, the picture is clearer than the marketing suggests. So far, no dietary supplement has been shown in solid human studies to prevent, treat, or slow the progression of prostate cancer once diagnosed. Some supplements that once sounded promising haven’t held up in careful trials. Others affect lab markers, such as PSA, without improving outcomes that truly matter. In fact, some supplements—like high-dose vitamin E or selenium—have actually shown potential harm in trials.
Not sure you can access this from where you are, but here is the full letter he wrote about this

Thanks for the article, it's accessible!
About the harm of vitamin D and foods containing selenium, magnesium, and zinc. All of these promote testosterone synthesis. But the contradiction lies in the fine line here: some substances promote lymphocyte production and affect the immune system.
My doctor simply told me, "You can eat everything in moderation," and he also advised me to drink green tea to lower testosterone.
I heard another very good doctor say, "Diet doesn't affect cancer."
During chemotherapy, I drank a lot of pomegranate and carrot juice, for example.
I've heard many people say I should give up meat, milk, and eggs. I reduced the amount of these, but I didn't give them up completely.
I'm not a doctor, but my opinion is that diet does matter. How else can you explain why some people's cancer goes away and doesn't return in the later stages?
