In 2020, 191,930 new cases of PCa and 33,330 deaths are estimated from this malignancy in the United States [1]. It is known that nutrition plays an important role in the initiation, promotion, and progression of several cancer types, including PCa [2][3][4][5]. It is also clear that along with substances that may increase the risk of cancer development, the human diets also contain chemopreventive or anticarcinogenic components. Therefore, possibility of cancer prevention by non-toxic agents, pre ferably from dietary sources, has emerged as a strategy for disease control [6]. Micronutrients present in edible plants are considered the most desirable class of chemopreventive agents, and epidemiological studies suggest that con sumption of fresh fruits and vegetables may decrease the incidence and the mortality of
