Prostate cancer
Supplements studied for prostate cancer.
Overview
Lycopene (25 studies) has the most research but shows mixed results—some observational data link higher intake to slightly lower prostate cancer risk, while trial evidence is inconsistent. Sulforaphane (3 studies) may slow PSA doubling time after surgery or in recurrent disease, suggesting possible delay in progression.
Vitamin E (14 studies) does not appear to prevent prostate cancer and may carry harm in some populations. Green Tea (12 studies) shows mixed preventive signals, with most research finding no clear risk reduction. See the heatmap and evidence reviews below for supplement-specific summaries.
