People who are obese may have a higher risk of prostate cancer. Obesity means a body mass index of 30 or higher. If you carry excess weight, work on losing it. Cut the number of calories you eat each day and exercise more.
To stay at a healthy weight, exercise most days of the week. Choose healthy foods such as fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
