Only 20% of U.S. men in a new survey said they knew that research has linked dairy consumption to a higher risk of prostate cancer, according to the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, a nonprofit that promotes plant-based diets.
The survey, conducted by Morning Consult for the group, included 1,102 U.S. men and was released during Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, as summarized by ScienceDaily. After being told about the link, 66% said they would be likely to avoid dairy, and 76% supported requiring warning labels on dairy products.
