PROSTATE CANCER: REAL TALK™
Prostate Cancer and A Whole Food Plant-Based Diet
In this episode of PROSTATE CANCER: REAL TALK, we welcome Dr. Christine Jovanovic, an Assistant Professor at the University of Illinois Cancer Research Center and a faculty member at the Institute of Minority Health Research. Dr. Jovanovic holds a PhD and MPH, with extensive expertise in public health and a special focus on whole food plant-based diets.
Dr. Jovanovic is committed to reducing health disparities in prostate cancer, especially among Black men. She introduces her new study, which explores the benefits of a whole food plant-based diet for men diagnosed with localized prostate cancer. The study aims to develop behavioral strategies that encourage communities to actively engage in their health management while improving overall wellness.
Join us as Dr. Jovanovic discusses her approach to empowering patients through diet and her upcoming research designed to assess how dietary changes can support men with prostate cancer. This episode is a deep dive into how diet can play a crucial role in cancer care and prevention.
