Walnuts can slow prostate cancer Prostate cancer doesn’t always need treatment because the tumors grow so slowly they often won’t harm you – and if you have one of those tumors inside you right now, there are steps you can take to slow its growth even further. Start by eating more walnuts. It’s not just a filling snack loaded with healthy fats. The latest research on mice finds that a daily serving of walnuts or walnut oil can slow the growth of prostate cancer, with benefits seen after just 18 weeks. The mice ate the human equivalent of about 2.6 ounces a day, which is nearly 500 calories – so if you want the benefits, be sure to eliminate something else from your diet. If you have an unhealthy snack habit, or maybe a weakness for those sugared drinks at your local coffee shop, here’s your chance to swap those empty calories for something that’s both tasty and healthy.
