According to a new NCI study led by Dr. Richard B. Hayes, men may be able to cut their risk of aggressive prostate cancer in half by adding broccoli and cauliflower to their diets.

Hayes and his team found that men who ate more than a serving of either vegetable each week had half the risk of advanced prostate cancer compared with men who ate these vegetables less than once a month.


The overall risk of prostate cancer was unchanged by vegetable intake however.

There was also a reduced risk of aggressive prostate cancer among men who ate raw or cooked spinach at least twice a week, compared to those men who ate it less than once a month.
