    I had a coworker whose husband was diagnosed with prostate cancer when he about 60. I suggested they investigate dietary change and just watch and wait. They didn’t and he had a prostectomy. They didn’t realize before surgery that he could never have an erection again, not including the urinary and fecal incontinence and long term pain. Very sad….and unnecessary.

      The biopsy alone is f*ck1ng torture.
      No one should have to go through that BS.
      I’m flabbergasted why a biopsy is done when you can get a non-invasive MRI.
      And according to this research/analysis neither is even needed (if you’re worried about the cost).

    Great, I wasn’t going to get tested anyhow 😅

  • @jys160 says:

    I have advanced prostate cancer so I did some research on things that may help as I had nothing to lose and plenty to gain. I came across your videos on cooked tomato products and Lycopene. I now take tomato puree 20g 3 times a day with added low-sugar ketchup. This had stopped my PSA from rising and hopefully reversed it. I have now started HDT on the advice of my oncologist So it is difficult to keep track of my progress. The HDT apparently will fail at some point and hopefully, The tomato puree will do its job.

    • @walkerDog says:

      TOMATO PASTE IS MOST CONCENTRATED & EFFECTIVE. THIN TOMATO IS WEAK. MUST BE COOKED PRODUCT & COMBINED WITH OLIVE OIL. IT IS OIL SOLUBLE.

      Do high dose vitamin c intravenous twice a week , at 70 g a day it will kill cancer , go for lower doses at the beginning . Vegan diet , no low sugar ketchup , no sugar , 0 sugars.

    Im a Urologist. Prostate cancer screening and treatment have evolved . The AUA has evidence based guidelines. Not all prostate cancer is the same. The disease aggression is variable. We now have genomic testing and many patients who have low grade disease are routinely recommended surveillance (observation without treatment). But some prostate cancers are very aggressive and need treatment. If you have it and wait too long then you loose the window of time to have nerve sparing treatments that save erectile function. Both robotic surgery and radiation are much more precise. It is mostly a disease of diet and I recommend all my patients get off of dairy asap and transition to a plant based or even better low fat vegan nutrition. If you have been on the western diet and are between the ages of 45 and 75, I recommend doing the screening each year.

      You haven’t convinced my to accept screening.

    • @spoudaois4535 says:

      @@allencrider Im not trying to convince you just giving my recommendations. Look up the evidence based prostate screening guidelines by the American Urologic Association and decide for yourself. I have been a Urologist almost 30 years and I can tell you that not prostate cancers are the same. Some are very aggressive and some are low risk. If you have been vegan all your life your risk is substantially lower of not having the disease.

    • @andrewnorris5415 says:

      Q. Does drinking herbal teas and decaf coffee increase the risk at all? I need to go to the toilet fairly often when I drink plenty of them, seem to lose some bladder control. But it does not bother me otherwise. Up once in the night to go the toilet is not too bad. I reckon the teas benefit me in other ways. The coffee esp seems to make me go more. Hope you don’t mind a question, something that I have been wondering, should I give them up to help my bladder.

    • @doug6259 says:

      Do you consider a Gleason score of 7 (3+4) with less than 5% at Grade 4 to be low enough to consider active surveillance rather than treating immediately?

    I recently received my biopsy results which showed Gleason 6 and Gleason 7 (3+4). I have an appointment with my Urologist to discuss. In the meantime I have been researching treatment options and switching to a mostly plant based diet. Mostly fruits and vegetables. I have eliminated or severely restricted processed and fried foods, meat, dairy, sugar and salt. I actually lost 5 pounds so far.

  • @koreyb says:

    A few simple foods can be very helpful in reducing the risks of prostate problems. Tomato paste, just a few tablespoons per day eaten with your regular meal. Frozen cranberries or cranberry powder added to your meal or a smoothie. And plain old pumpkin seeds added to your meals. And they all taste good to me.

  • @RandyOm says:

    of the 30,000 men who die each year in the USA (?) from prostate cancer, what percentage of those were treated with chemo?

  • @RandyOm says:

    What species of pumpkin?

  • @mikesimons1544 says:

    Father died of prostate cancer in his 70’s, and both younger/older brothers had cancers in their 50’s, with them removed without major complications. I’m the outlier so far, and at 68 still have PSA < 2. Can afford the whole body scan every so often even though most docs don't recommend it. Would never do biopsy, just take it.

  • @DrNatureclinic says:

    Wonderful work

  • @raystaar says:

    It’s truly disturbing that there is so much resistance to a plant based diet when something as dire as a cancer diagnosis is in play.
