The powerful vitamin that protects against prostate can.cer and other types of canc.er (Page 2 ) | April 5, 2025

– Race: Men of African descent have a slightly higher risk of developing prostate ca:ncer.

– Diet and lifestyle: Some studies suggest that a diet high in saturated fat and obesity may increase the risk.

The Powerful Vitamin That Reduces the Risk of Prostate and Other Ca:ncers
In an article published in Harvard Health Publishing, researchers found that high vitamin D levels were associated with up to a 20% lower risk of ca:ncer in men and women compared to those with low vitamin D levels. Higher vitamin D levels appear to offer the clearest benefit in reducing the risk of liver ca:ncer, especially in men.

Furthermore, another article involving 190 men found that patients with aggressive prostate ca:ncer had lower vitamin D levels (below 30 nanograms per milliliter), suggesting that vitamin D may have a protective effect against this and other types of can-cer.

How does vitamin D protect against c:ancer?
Researchers are still not 100% clear on how vitamin D reduces the risk of different types of ca-ncer, but certain factors may explain the association. Previous research has suggested that vitamin D has an anti-inflammatory effect and may interfere with ca-ncer cell pathways. Additionally, people who tend to lead healthier lifestyles spend more time outdoors and are therefore exposed to more vitamin D-generating sunlight.

Effective Ways to Increase Your Vitamin D Levels
– Spend time in sunlight
– Consume fatty fish and seafood: salmon, tuna, mackerel, oysters, shrimp, sardines, anchovies
– Eat more mushrooms
– Include egg yolks in your diet
– Eat fortified foods: cow’s milk, plant-based milk alternatives like soy, almond, and hemp milk
orange juice, ready-to-eat cereals, certain types of yogurt
– Take a vitamin D supplement
