Non-Toxic Therapies Inhibit Prostate Cancer

“…assessed the safety and effectiveness of the active components in green tea to prevent prostate cancer development in men who have premalignant prostate cancer lesions. “

My great-grandfather and grandfather both died with prostate cancer (PCa) and both my uncle and father are living with PCa. I have to believe that chances are good that I will develop PCa someday. And I keep a close watch on my PSA levels.

Considering the prevalence of PCa among men, it seems only logical to me that all men over 50 would want to prevent, slow or actively fight PCa. While I haven’t been diagnosed with PCa I consider my supplementation, nutrition and moderate exercise as actively reducing the risks of PCa.

My PSA blood test last fall (’14) showed a 0.8- as a 55 year old, I am happy.

Diet, Supplementation, Lifestyle and more have all been shown to reduce the growth of PCa. According to one of the studies linked below “The data showed that serum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) concentrations were significantly lower at the end of the study compared with baseline levels in men consuming green tea. In addition, prostate tissue PSA protein expression was lower in men assigned to green tea consumption compared with the control group at the end of the study.”

I am a survivor of a completely different type of cancer called multiple myeloma. Years of research and experience have taught me that evidence-based non-conventional therapies are just as if not more effective for many types of cancer than conventional (FDA) therapy.

I supplement with curcumin, green tea, and omega 3 fatty acids (fish oil) among others. According to the studies linked and excerpted below these supplements inhibit prostate cancer.

For more information about prostate cancer therapies- conventional, integrative and non-conventional please scroll down the page, post a question or a comment and I will reply ASAP.

thank you,

Therapeutic potential of curcumin in human prostate cancer. III. Curcumin inhibits proliferation, induces apoptosis, and inhibits angiogenesis of LNCaP prostate cancer cells in vivo

“RESULTS- Curcumin causes a marked decrease in the extent of cell proliferation as measured by the BrdU incorporation assay and a significant increase in the extent of apoptosis as measured by an in situ cell death assay. Moreover, a significant decrease in the microvessel density as measured by the CD31 antigen staining was also seen.

CONCLUSIONs- Curcumin could be a potentially therapeutic anti‐cancer agent, as it significantly inhibits prostate cancer growth, as exemplified by LNCaP in vivo, and has the potential to prevent the progression of this cancer to its hormone refractory state.

Component in green tea may help reduce prostate cancer in men at high risk

“A team of researchers recently published results of a randomized trial that assessed the safety and effectiveness of the active components in green tea to prevent PCa development in men who have premalignant lesions. “

Green Tea Reduced Inflammation, May Inhibit Prostate Cancer Tumor Growth, Research Finds

Low-fat fish oil diet changes cancer tissue in men with prostate cancer

“Men with PCa who ate a low-fat diet and took fish oil supplements had lower levels of proinflammatory substances in their blood and a lower cell cycle progression score, a measure used to predict cancer recurrence, than men who ate a typical Western diet. The findings are important because lowering the cell cycle progression (CCP) score may help prevent prostate cancers from becoming more aggressive…
