Organic Milk and Prostate Cancer: What You Should Know
"Researchers have expressed concern that since cow’s milk contains estrogens, dairy could stimulate the growth of hormone-sensitive tumors. The thought is that the consumption of dairy products could both “promote the conversion of precancerous lesions or mutated cells to invasive cancer and enhance the progression of hormone-dependent tumors.”
This was initially postulated based on suggestive population-scale data like a 25 fold increase in prostate cancer in Japan since World War II. What was happening to their diets during that period? A five, 10, and 20 fold increase in eggs, meat, and dairy consumption, respectively, whereas the rest of their diet remained pretty stable."

2.5 Eggs Per Week Raises Prostate Cancer Risk by 81% in Major New Study
"Red and processed meat may increase risk of advanced prostate cancer. Data on post-diagnostic diet and prostate cancer are sparse, but post-diagnostic intake of poultry with skin and eggs may increase risk of disease progression."

Choline Intake and Risk of Lethal Prostate Cancer: Incidence and Survival
"Meat, milk, and eggs have been inconsistently associated with the risk of advanced prostate cancer. These foods are sources of choline-a nutrient that may affect prostate cancer progression through cell membrane function and one-carbon metabolism."

Changes in Prostate Gene Expression in Men Undergoing an Intensive Nutrition and Lifestyle Intervention
"Intensive nutrition and lifestyle changes may modulate gene expression in the prostate. Understanding the prostate molecular response to comprehensive lifestyle changes may strengthen efforts to develop effective prevention and treatment."

Intensive Lifestyle Changes May Affect Progression of Prostate Cancer
"Men with prostate cancer are often advised to make changes in diet and lifestyle, although the impact of these changes has not been well documented. Therefore, we evaluated the effects of comprehensive lifestyle changes on prostate specific antigen (PSA), treatment trends and serum stimulated LNCaP cell growth in men with early, biopsy proven prostate cancer after 1 year."

Luteolin Inhibits Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 Receptor Signaling in Prostate Cancer Cells
"Luteolin is a common flavonoid found in celery, broccoli, and many spices that may have the ability to suppress the insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) hormone associated with prostate cancer growth. This might explain why plants have the ability to alter IGF-I production."
