You would be shocked to hear that the men suffering from prostate cancer are at a greater risk of death if they are found overweight or obese.

Recent researches say that men whose body mass index (BMI) is higher than 25% at the time when prostate cancer is diagnosed, are at twice the risk of dying from their disease as compared to the thinner men.

So, it becomes really necessary for you to get your BMI checked regularly to avoid fatal outcomes.

According to the latest research on 788 patients suffering from prostate cancer for 8 years, men with BMIs between 25 and 30% were 1.5 times at much greater risk of facing a very early death from their disease. And those with BMI more than 30 were found to be 1.6 times likely to die from prostate cancer than those with a normal BMI.

The Best Diet For Men

Most men hate going on any type of diet, since it means having to watch what they eat, how they eat, and when they eat. However, to lose weight many men will choose one diet over another often based on the latest diet market craze or current diet trend.

Low Carbs or Low Fat Diet?

Low carb and low fat diets have been fighting it out for some time but which one is better when it comes to permanent weight loss in men of all ages is the latest dieting myths.

Studies show that the low carb diet is the best diet for men even though they’ll be eating more calories and fat than if they were on a low fat or low calorie diet. In fact, some studies claim that some 70% of men do better on a low carb diet than on any other type of diet.

Some types of low carb diets include the South Beach Diet and the Atkins diet. The reason for this success with the low carb diet for men is that they are seldom hungry on this type of diet. When men are on a low fat diet they are often left feeling hungry and dissatisfied at the end of the day.

The one thing that men need to worry about when they choose a low carb diet is the amount of fat that they consume in one day. For men that are watching their heart and blood pressure, a low carb diet can lead to complications that can negatively affect their health.
