Fiber-Fed mice may hold key to slowing prostate cancer

This study looked at how dietary fiber supplements change gut bacteria and whether those changes can slow prostate cancer growth. Researchers gave mice different fibers (like inulin and pectin) along with fecal samples from healthy men over 60. They then measured how the bacteria and chemicals in the gut affected prostate cancer tumors in the mice. The goal was to identify fibers that could be used in future nutrition therapies for prostate cancer patients.
