abstract
Although ethnic differences in the incidence of prostate cancer are well defined, we found no difference in the baseline fat intake among black and white men that might have contributed to this difference. Serum PSA, a marker often used in early detection programs for prostate cancer, was not associated with manipulation of the amount of fat in the diet, regardless of ethnicity.
