what are the best supplement to prevent prostate cancer

I think those are all healthy life choices regardless of PCa. It will be good for you one way or another.

I'm a little skeptical as I don't think there is a magic pill or strategy to avoid what I feel is greatly dependent on genetics. That said, being healthy is a great life strategy.

When i was diagnosed at 40 I had pretty much spent the last 5 years of my life eating perfectly, working out twice a day every single day except days when I was flying or holidays when the gym was closed. I got cancer at the height of my fitness and healthy dietary habits.

I think this is a bit of a controversial subject as far as facts go (Allen recently posted something on Pomgranate) but I thik everyone agrees that healthy habits give you better odds.

My surgeon always told me to minimize red meat, if not avoid it, and to try and eliminate dairy. I have not been great on that given my 5 coffees a day and my dependence on parmesan from Italy.

Chances of you getting PCa at anytime soon are truly minimal. My uro described my situation as a freak situation.

let go of red meats ,chicken and pork with all their additives, antibiotics etc...cancer thrives in sugar and acid environment. Dairy is also bad unless you have a pure natural source....cafeine is also bad in excess...I cut all these when I got my diagnostic on February 1st 2013, I feel wonderful for it and shedded 30 lbs...but it was too late I already had my tumor...but eating healthy vegetarian food will allow me to have a beter life now...

Supplements? Diet? Genetic screening. And if you have the gene, just be ready.

I would agree with cleaning up your diet and taking Pom wonderful capsules from Pomx.  supplements wont prevent cancer but they've been proven to slow it down.

Of course switching to the Med type diets and exercising can only help your general health condition in life, so that is a good move in my opinion, and backs up what oncology dieticians have told me first hand.

On the supplement side, not a single doctor of mine, including my oncologist who specializes only in advanced PC and advanced BC, put much stock or value in any supplement.

While I don't take any, I think its a personal choice, and if by taking stuff, you think it will help you, I would have no complaint on my end. My long time personal PCP put it best, is that men that get crazy with supplements only end up producing expensive urine.

Eating healthy has so many good benefits on its own merits. Don't know if you are a smoker or not, but quitting smoking is another huge boost to your general health. Good luck in what you do.

My uro told me to avoid the red meat and eat chicken. What's wrong with chicken -- especially after removing the skin? If you're worried about antibiotics and supplements that are fed to the chicken, then should we avoid commercially raised fish too?
