CAPE CORAL, Fla. — September is prostate cancer awareness month.

The prostate cancer foundation says 30-percent of cancers are preventable through lifestyle changes, including eating better. Each day on Fox 4, we'll profile a superfood you can incorporate into your diet. The challenge is called the "Eat It To Beat It."

Today's superfood is tempeh.

Tempeh is a soy product that is from Indonesia.

It is typically fermented and called a soy cake.

Tempeh contains a plant-based estrogen that can prevent not only prostate cancer but also breast cancer.
