See answer: The development cancer is in most cases a part of the aging process. It has been proposed that dietary factors, eg, high animal fat intake, may play a role in the development of cancer. Two drugs, Finasteride and Dutasteride have each been shown to reduce the risk of diagnosis of prostate cancer (pcpt and reduce trials). However, they may be associated with sexual side effects and hi grade cancer.
