Overview of Prostate Cancer Risk Factors and Prevention
Understanding prostate cancer risk factors and prevention strategies is crucial for early detection and management. Here's what you need to know about both modifiable and non-modifiable factors:
Age & Genetic Factors
Risk increases significantly after age 50, with 60% of cases diagnosed in men over 65. Family history, especially first-degree relatives with prostate cancer, doubles the risk. Certain genetic mutations like BRCA1 and BRCA2 are linked to higher risk.
Race & Ethnicity Impact
African American men and Caribbean men of African descent face higher incidence rates, making regular screening particularly important for these populations.
Diet & Lifestyle Factors
High-fat diets and processed meats increase risk, while a diet rich in vegetables provides protection. Regular exercise and maintaining a healthy weight are crucial preventive measures.
Prevention Through Activity
Regular physical activity helps manage weight and lower risk. Combined with smoking cessation and moderate alcohol consumption, exercise forms a cornerstone of prevention.
By understanding and addressing these risk factors while implementing prevention strategies, men can take proactive steps toward protecting their prostate health.

Holistic Care: A Vital Component in Prostate Health
Holistic care for prostate cancer goes beyond conventional treatments to address the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—to promote overall well-being during and after cancer. It recognizes that physical health is interconnected with mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects.
Here are some key aspects of holistic care for prostate cancer:

Diet and Nutrition
A balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can support overall health and potentially reduce the risk of prostate cancer.

Physical Activity
Regular exercise can help manage weight, improve cardiovascular health, and potentially lower the risk of prostate cancer progression.

Stress Management
Stress can impact the immune system and potentially contribute to cancer progression. Techniques like yoga, meditation, and deep breathing can help reduce stress.

Mind-Body Therapies
Mind-body therapies, such as acupuncture, massage, and aromatherapy, may help manage side effects of treatment and improve overall well-being.

Emotional Support
Having a strong support system, including family, friends, and support groups, can help cope with the emotional and psychological challenges of cancer.
Supportive Care
In addition to emotional support, supportive care services such as counseling, psychotherapy, and support groups can provide invaluable resources for individuals and their families throughout the prostate cancer journey.
Complementary and Alternative Therapies
Complementary and alternative therapies, such as herbal supplements and acupuncture, may be explored in conjunction with conventional treatments to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.
Regular Medical Check-ups
Regular medical check-ups, including prostate-specific antigen (PSA) testing and other diagnostic measures, are crucial for monitoring the progress of prostate cancer and ensuring timely interventions when needed.
Man Cave Health
In the United States, over 2.9 million men are living with prostate cancer, yet many of them remain silent about their condition.
Man Cave Health is an initiative founded by The Milana Family Foundation and led by Dr. Tewari’s team to break the silence surrounding sensitive health topics for men.
Nearly 81% of men remember the make and model of their first car, but barely half remember their last doctor’s visit. Man Cave Health is committed to changing these statistics, and that means changing the landscape of men’s health.
