October Health and Wellness – Nutrition Pocket Guide
What we eat can influence our overall well-being, metabolic health, and experience during and after prostate cancer treatment. Building healthier habits doesn’t have to be complicated; it starts with making informed choices, one meal at a time.
PCF’s Nutrition Pocket Guide offers practical recommendations to help you:
- Eat more plant-based foods with vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains.
- Choose healthier proteins such as fish, beans, lentils, and skinless poultry.
- Support metabolic health by limiting added sugars and highly processed foods.
- Build healthy routines with balanced nutrition and daily movement.
Nutrition is also an important area of prostate cancer research. PCF has invested more than $1 billion in prostate cancer research, including studies exploring how diet and metabolism may influence disease risk, progression, and treatment outcomes. This research helps advance PCF’s mission to improve patients’ quality of life and survival.
