Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide. Its incidence varies greatly depending on geography, ethnicity, and, most importantly, lifestyle factors, particularly diet. This review explores how fats, proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and phytonutrients influence the development and progression of prostate cancer. Although clinical data remain heterogeneous, growing evidence supports plant-based diets that are low in processed animal products. The goal is to identify dietary components that could slow prostate carcinogenesis.
