Summary

This study tests whether different combinations of diet and exercise support tools—like educational materials, text messaging, and coaching—can improve outcomes for men with prostate cancer who choose surgery. Researchers will track PSA recurrence and quality of life over time. The goal is to see if lifestyle changes can help delay or prevent cancer from coming back.
