Healthcast— Consuming dairy products may increase the risk of prostate cancer.
Researchers from the Mayo Clinic reviewed a total of 47 studies involving more than a million people.
Those who consumed dairy products the most had a higher risk of developing prostate cancer.
There was no association between eating other animal-based foods such as red and white meats and fish to an increased risk of prostate cancer.
And those who followed a plant-based diet had a lower rate of developing the disease.
Experts said more research is needed to understand the strength of the associations.
