Prostate Cancer Risk in Active vs. Inactive, Sedentary Lifestyles in Men

The evidence clearly indicates that an active lifestyle plays a significant role in reducing the risk of prostate cancer, particularly aggressive forms of the disease. Regular physical activity helps regulate hormones, improves immune function, and reduces chronic inflammation, all of which are protective against cancer. On the other hand, a sedentary lifestyle, characterized by prolonged sitting and physical inactivity, is associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer due to its impact on obesity, inflammation, and insulin resistance.
Men should be encouraged to not only increase their levels of physical activity but also reduce sedentary behavior to optimize their overall health and lower the risk of prostate cancer. By adopting active habits, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding prolonged sitting, men can significantly reduce their risk of developing this common cancer.
