"Prostate cancer is a major health concern for men that strikes approximately one in six and is a leading cause of male cancer deaths in the United States.1 Recent research from UC Davis and the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture Western Regional Research Center in Albany, CA found that prostate tumors in mice fed the human equivalent of three ounces per day of walnuts were approximately 50% smaller and grew 30% slower than prostate tumors in control mice.2 Please note that results are based on animal research and therefore the application to humans is unknown."
