Endive and prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer risk: Data about the relation with prostate cancer risk was provided by one cohort. A nonsignificant protective effect was found of raw, but not prepared endive.
Prostate cancer mortality: No data was found.

Conclusion: A nonsignificant protective effect of raw endive against total prostate cancer risk was found in one cohort, but results were to limited to be judged as evidence. No evidence was found for an association between endive and prostate cancer.
