Supplemental and Dietary Vitamin E, β-Carotene, and Vitamin C Intakes and Prostate Cancer Risk

Abstract

Our results do not provide strong support for population-wide implementation of high-dose antioxidant supplementation for the prevention of prostate cancer. However, vitamin E supplementation in male smokers and beta-carotene supplementation in men with low dietary beta-carotene intakes were associated with reduced risk of this disease.
