Superfoods For Your Prostate

Superfoods for your Prostate are top sources of the antioxidant lycopene or have been the subject of a human clinical trial linking ingestion of the food itself with a reduction in either the risk of developing prostate cancer or progression of the disease. Diets high in tomato products significantly reduce the risk of developing prostate cancer, so much so that the FDA approved a limited health claim for tomato based products and a reduction in the risk of prostate cancer. Recently, human studies have linked the isolated lycopene carotenoid itself to prostate protection, bolstering the case that it is specifically the lycopene that has chemoprotective benefits.

Meets Superfood Prostate Criteria

To be labeled a Superfood for your Prostate one serving of the food must provide at least 2 mg of the antioxidant carotenoid lycopene. Recent studies link isolated lycopene ingestion to prostate protection, bolstering the case that lycopene itself has chemoprotective benefits.

The ingestion of the food itself must be associated with a reduction in either the risk of prostate cancer development or the progression of the disease, as evidenced by a positive human clinical trial. For example, many studies link  diets high in tomato products with a significant reduction in the risk of developing prostate cancer.
