Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a diet with a high content of phytoestrogens can slow down the prostate tumor proliferation. Phytoestrogens are found in food items such as soy, rye, and seeds.

Two hundred thirty men with prostate cancer will be included in the study and followed until surgery (at least 6 weeks). Half of the study participants will receive general information about healthy food choices and a package of foods with high content of phytoestrogens to add to their food. The other half will get the same information but not receive the food-package.
