A new study shows that being overweight before the age of 30 in men increases the risk of prostate cancer.
According to the newspaper "The Sun", Swedish researchers found that men who gain only one kilogram per year from the ages of 17 to 29 have a 27 percent higher chance of dying from the disease.
Experts said shedding weight in youth may be "key" to avoiding injury.
"Knowing more about the factors that cause prostate cancer is key to preventing it," said Dr Marisa da Silva, from Lund University in Malmö. "The only well-established risk factors, such as advanced age and family history of the disease, are not modifiable, but preventing severe weight gain in young men is imperative to prevent prostate cancer."
Prostate cancer is the most common type of tumor among British men, killing more than 12,000 people annually.
"This new study shows the terrible impact that being overweight in early adulthood can have on men later in life," said Kathryn Jenner, of Opposite Health. "Research like this is key for preventing deaths."
Simon Graveson, of Prostate Cancer UK, said: "Maintaining a healthy weight can protect against many types of cancer, but it is important to remember that prostate cancer can affect men of all weights, shapes and sizes."
