Abstract
Introducción: Los países del sur de Europa, tienen una menor incidencia y mortalidad por cáncer de próstata en comparación con otras regiones europeas. Este efecto beneficioso se ha atribuido a un patrón de alimentación específica. Objetivo: El objetivo de esta revisión es examinar la evidencia sobre los efectos de la adhesión a la dieta mediterránea en el riesgo de cáncer de próstata; e identificar que componentes de la dieta mediterránea protegen contra el cáncer de próstata. Métodos: Se realizó una búsqueda en la literatura científica utilizando las siguientes base de datos: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science. Utilizamos los términos de búsqueda “dieta mediterránea”, “adhesión”, “frutas y verduras”, “aceite de oliva”, “pescado” “legumbres”, “cereal” “alcohol” “leche”, “producto lácteo”, “cáncer de próstata”, y combinaciones, tales como”dieta mediterránea y cáncer de próstata “o” aceite de oliva y cáncer de próstata “. Resultados: Existe una fuerte evidencia que soporta una asociación entre alimentos que son típicos de un patrón de alimentación mediterránea y un menor riesgo de cáncer de próstata. Sin embargo, son pocos los estudios que han evaluado el efecto de la dieta mediterránea sobre la incidencia del cáncer de próstata. Los datos recientes no apoyan una asociación entre el seguimiento de este tipo de dieta y el riesgo de cáncer de próstata o su progresión. Sin embargo, un patrón de alimentación mediterránea después del diagnóstico de cáncer no metastásico se ha asociado con una disminución de la mortalidad global. Conclusión: Se requieren más estudios a gran escala para aclarar el efecto de la dieta mediterránea sobre la salud prostática, con el fin de establecer su papel en la prevención de cáncer de próstata.
BACKGROUND: Countries following the traditional Mediterranean Diet, particularly Southern European countries, have lower prostate cancer incidence and mortality compared to other European regions. The beneficial effect has been attributed to a specific eating pattern. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this review is to examine the evidence to date on the effects of adherence to a Mediterranean Diet on prostate cancer risk; and to identify which elements of the Mediterranean diet are likely to protect against prostate cancer. METHODS: The search for articles came from extensive research in the following databases: PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science. We used the search terms "Mediterranean diet", "adherence", "fruit and vegetable", "olive oil", "fish" "legume", "cereal" "alcohol" "milk", "dairy product","prostate cancer", and combinations, such as "Mediterranean diet and prostate cancer" or "Olive oil and prostate cancer". RESULTS: There is strong evidence supporting associations between foods that are typical of a Mediterranean eating pattern and reduced prostate cancer risk. However, there are few studies that have assessed the effect of the Mediterranean diet on cancer prostate incidence. Recent data do not support associations to adherence to a Mediterranean Diet and risk of prostate cancer or disease progression. However, Mediterranean eating pattern after diagnosis of nonmetastatatic cancer was associated with lower overall mortality. CONCLUSION: Further large-scale studies are required to clarify the effect of Mediterranean diet on prostate health, in order to establish the role of this diet in the prevention of prostate cancer.
