To prove this notion, researchers carried out a research under which some rats were implanted with prostate cancer cells and then were divided into three groups. Where first group of such rats was provided with a diet containing 10 percent broccoli powder and 10 percent tomato powder. Other groups of rats received either tomato powder or broccoli powder alone; a supplemental dose of lycopene (the red pigment in tomatoes believed to be an anti-cancer agent); or finasteride, a drug prescribed for men with enlarged prostates.
