Which do men need more, milk or tomatoes?

　　Milk is rich in nutrients, and more and more people drink milk every day. However, many studies have found that people who drink milk regularly male Susceptible to prostate cancer.
　　
　　Statistical analysis found that compared with men who consumed 150 mg of calcium from dairy products per day, men who consumed 600 mg of calcium per day had significantly lower plasma concentrations of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (which has anti-prostate cancer effects), and their risk of prostate cancer increased by 32%.
　　
　　After excluding age, weight, smoking, sports exercise After analyzing the influencing factors, it was found that men who consumed more than 2.5 servings of dairy products per day (each serving is equivalent to 240ml of milk) had a 34% higher risk of developing prostate cancer than those who consumed less than 0.5 servings of dairy products.
　　
　　Researchers in Philadelphia, USA, have also confirmed through epidemiological surveys in the past 10 years that eating more dairy products will increase the risk of prostate cancer in men. Domestic studies have also found that milk intake is significantly related to the incidence of prostate cancer. The reason may be that some brands of milk contain higher estrogen content.
　　
　　Fortunately, some plant compounds in fruits (fruit foods) and vegetables have certain anti-cancer effects. tomato Red pigment is an important carotenoid that is widely found in fruits and vegetables (vegetable foods).
　　
　　Tomato, apricot, guava, watermelon, papaya and red Grape (Grape foods) all contain more lycopene, especially tomatoes with the highest content. American researchers conducted a 6-year follow-up survey on 46,000 men and found that 773 cases developed prostate cancer. The study found that compared with people who do not eat raw tomatoes, those who eat raw tomatoes 2-4 times a week have a 26% lower risk of developing prostate cancer. Tomato pizza and tomato sauce also have this effect; direct consumption of lycopene can also reduce the risk of prostate cancer.
　　
　　The antioxidant property of lycopene is the strongest among natural carotenoids. It can protect the genetic material DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), inhibit cancer cell proliferation and regulate hormone status. Its anti-prostate cancer effect has been confirmed by a large number of studies. Therefore, in order to protect the prostate, men should drink milk leisurely and not drink it as a drink. In addition, they should pay special attention to nutritional balance and might as well eat more tomatoes every day.
