Most often, the word diet is perceived as restricting the diet in order to combat excess weight.
In reality, following a diet allows you to avoid a number of diseases, including chronic ones. And there is also a diet for women's and men's health. We will tell you about the latter.
There is a diet that helps men reduce the risk of developing a form of cancer called prostate cancer.
The disease develops covertly, but the risk can be minimized.
According to the latest scientific research published in the journal JAMA Network Open, the risk of developing prostate cancer can be reduced by half.
These results were demonstrated by men whose diet was rich in fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as grains.
In total, the study examined the well-being of over 2,000 men aged 65 years.
It turned out that this diet reduces the likelihood of developing this form of cancer by almost half.
At the same time, the risk of developing diabetes, vascular and heart disease is reduced, and along with them the risk of sudden death.
Even men with a confirmed diagnosis, but whose disease had not spread to other parts of the body, showed positive changes.
A plant-based diet reduced the risk of cancer spreading by 47%.
