BLBinkai LiuHarvard University CHCaroline Himbert JVJane B. VaselkivHarvard University

Key Points

To examine the association between healthy dietary patterns and survival in men diagnosed with prostate cancer.
Evaluated adherence to AHEI and AMED dietary patterns post-diagnosis.
Assessed survival rates in men with varying aggressiveness of prostate cancer.
Analyzed data to establish links between diet and survival outcomes.
Men adhering to healthy dietary patterns showed improved survival rates.
Greater benefits were observed in less aggressive prostate cancer cases.
Dietary improvement is supported as a vital component of survivorship care.

Abstract

Adherence to healthy dietary patterns, especially AHEI and AMED, after prostate cancer diagnosis was associated with improved survival, particularly in less aggressive disease. These findings support dietary improvement as a part of survivorship care.
