Prostate cancer grows slowly and may not cause discomfort until it\u2019s advanced. Some studies say <strong>half of all men age 70 and older have prostate cancer.<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prostate cancer is yet another disease of affluence\u2014it\u2019s far more prevalent in Western countries than in developing ones. Does this mean it&#8217;s preventable? And if so, how?<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a handful of studies, <strong>men who consumed the most dairy had double the risk of developing prostate cancer of men who consumed the least dairy.<\/strong> Even more startling, their chance of dying of the disease was four times as high. These studies first made the public aware of the link between milk and prostate cancer.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Dairy Contributes to Prostate Cancer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mechanism #1:<\/strong> <strong>Consuming animal foods increases IGF-1.<\/strong><br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The growth hormone IGF-1 is responsible for managing cell reproduction. In normal ranges, IGF-1 works efficiently. Too much of it, and cells reproduce at too fast a rate and old cells aren\u2019t removed quickly enough. This promotes cancer.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Men with high IGF-1 levels are 5.1 times more likely to develop prostate cancer than men with low IGF-1 levels. Consuming animal products causes our bodies to produce more IGF-1 than we need, increasing our cancer risk.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Mechanism #2:<\/strong> <strong>Calcium and animal protein block the production of vitamin D.<\/strong><br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our bodies use vitamin D from sunlight and certain foods to make a \u201csupercharged\u201d form that prevents cancer, osteoporosis, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-causes-autoimmune-disease-diet\/\">autoimmune diseases<\/a>, among other illnesses.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Calcium and animal proteins (both found in animal foods) can inhibit the body\u2019s ability to turn vitamin D into supercharged vitamin D. Lower levels of supercharged D have been shown to promote <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/3-stages-of-cancer-development\/\">cancer development<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These mechanisms show that animal foods promote prostate cancer development in multiple ways. The link between dairy and prostate cancer is especially strong because of its high calcium content.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoid Milk: Prostate Cancer Treatment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In a controlled study (conducted by Dr. Ornish) of men with early prostate cancer, only 5% of the patients in the \u201cdiet-and-lifestyle\u201d group (as opposed to the \u201cstandard-care\u201d group) eventually needed conventional prostate cancer treatment. Ornish also found that <strong>the blood of the diet-and-lifestyle group repressed the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/cancer-growth\/\">growth of cancer<\/a> in cultures and that over 500 of these patients\u2019 genes were expressed differently due to dietary and lifestyle changes.<\/strong><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent research found that men with prostate cancer who eat three or more servings of dairy a day have a 141% increased risk of dying within ten years, compared with men with prostate cancer who eat less than one serving of dairy a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The link between dairy and prostate cancer, including milk and prostate cancer, is clear. Eat less dairy to reduce your risk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is there a link between milk and prostate cancer?
