Here are 4 practical tips to implement in your daily life. 1) Lose your Belly Fat Aim to keep your waistline trim. Fat in the body results in a lowering of Prostate Specific Antigen ( PSA) that circulates in the blood stream. When your Doctor checks your PSA levels to determine if you do have prostate cancer - an excess of weight may result in a skewing of test results. 2) Enjoy the sunshine! Contrary to what you may have heard the sun isn't all bad. In the US research carried out on men living within the sunniest states found a 32% lower risk rate of prostate cancer. This is believed to be as a result of Vitamin D, which we can get from the sun. However, if you are worried about damage to skin from the sun, you can get your Vitamin D requirements from Cod Liver Oil instead. 3) Follow Popeye's example - eat spinach! One study established that men could halve their risk of prostate cancer by establishing a high intake of folate. this is a nutrient that can be found in spinach. Aim for a daily quota of 400 micrograms ( MCG). As a guide a 180g serving of cooked spinach will provide approximately 100 mcg. 4) Think Red! A study review published in the Journal of Nutrition established that eating between two to four servings of raw tomatoes reduced men's risk of prostate cancer, by 26%. Alternatively, you could opt for a glass of tomato juice which contains similar cancer busting properties. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Eamon Greville has a passionate interest in providing accessible information and resources to those affected by Prostate Cancer.
