According to 2017-2019 data from the National Cancer Institute, prostate cancer is the second most common form of cancer in men, behind skin cancer. It's predicted that about 12.6% of all men will have prostate cancer at some point in their lifetime. An antioxidant studied for its benefit to prostate health is the carotenoid "lycopene," which is found in red and pink fruits and vegetables like tomatoes, guava, grapefruit, and watermelon.
As suggested in a 2015 meta-analysis in Medicine (Baltimore) and a 2017 systematic review in Prostate Cancer and Prostatic Diseases, lycopene is possibly associated with a reduced incidence of prostate cancer
