Obesity and Prostate Cancer
The University of Southern California has an NIH grant to explore the relationship between obesity and cancer. Researchers are now reporting what I have been stating since the release of Mastering Leptin in 2002, obesity is a significant risk factor for aggressive prostate cancer....Read More: breast cancer, Leptin Diet, metabolism, organic food, prostate cancer
Death Rate from Prostate Cancer Much Higher in Overweight Men
A new study confirms that men who are overweight or obese are twice as likely to die from prostate cancer. I reported back in 2002 in my book, Mastering Leptin, that leptin problems (overweight issues) are a main risk for developing prostate or breast cancer. The science was known back then. Obesity generates highly inflammatory signals that directly induce the cancer risk problem.Read More: aging, breast cancer, cancer risk, overweight, premature death, prostate cancer
New Obesity Link to Breast and Prostate Cancer
New information helps to explain how breast and prostate cancer are linked to obesity. Two hormones that come from fat, leptin and adiponectin, are involved in the problem.Read More: adiponectin, breast cancer, hormone, insulin, insulin resistance, Leptin Diet, metabolism, prostate cancer
Flawed SELECT Study Attacks Vitamin E
The National Cancer Institute’s (NCI) SELECT study (Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial) for prostate cancer in men was halted this week after initial data analysis showed that selenium and vitamin E, taken alone or together for an average of five years, did not prevent prostate cancer...Well I have a question for the nutritionally-challenged people at NCI; why did you design a study that couldn’t possibly succeed and then waste taxpayer money on it?Read More: Daily Super E™, prostate cancer, SELECT, Selenium, Tocotrienols, Vitamin E
Fish Oil Lowers Aggressive Prostate Cancer Risk by 63%
Researchers from the University of California San Francisco have demonstrated that fish oil can reduce the most serious form of prostate cancer by 63%. The researchers also found that in men with a weakness in the inflammatory COX2 gene, 500 mg of omega 3 fatty acids per day could compensate for the genetic weakness and reduce the risk of aggressive prostate cancer in this group of at risk men by 500%.Read More: DHA, fish oil, prostate cancer
Gamma Tocotrienol in the War on Cancer
A flurry of recent studies demonstrates that gamma tocotrienol, a unique form of vitamin E, offers protection at the molecular level from a number of different types of cancer.Read More: breast cancer, prostate cancer, Tocotrienols
Prostate Cancer and Zinc – Can Zinc Be Overdone?
Many individuals are confused by the meaning of studies that sometimes show a particular nutrient is associated with some form of cancer when in fact they thought that nutrient was supposed to be helpful. A case in point is zinc and prostate cancer, which is the subject of this posting.Read More: prostate cancer, Zinc
Can Resveratrol Prevent Prostate Cancer?
Resveratrol is repeatedly in the headlines as a potent anti-aging nutrient and I have written about this extensively in my article, Is Resveratrol the Fountain of Youth? A new cell study shows that resveratrol can block the transition of cancer cells into the form that becomes aggressive prostate cancer that is more likely to kill.Read More: Male Plus, prostate cancer, Resveratrol
Prostate Cancer & the Androgen Receptor – A Clearer Picture of the Problem
Prostate cancer is the most widely diagnosed cancer in America. Men have a 17% risk for getting the problem during their lifetime. The story of any cancer is essentially survival gone wrong, a problem wherein normal cell function is hijacked and turned to cancer. How this happens varies considerably for any particular type of cancer, although there are a number of common features. Any man not wanting prostate cancer in the first place or who is treating this problem should spend some time understanding at least the basics of the androgen receptor.Read More: androgen receptor, Daily Super E™, Male Plus, NF-kappaB, prostate cancer
Leptin, Obesity, and Prostate Cancer
Duke University researchers have demonstrated that obesity in and of itself is a risk factor for aggressive prostate cancer. The study involved 1415 men who had undergone radical prostatectomy as prostate cancer treatment (about 50/50 white and black men). Race was not a factor in who was likely to continue disease progression based on the prostate cancer spreading aggressively, but obesity was.Read More: agressive prostate cancer, Leptin Control Pack®, Leptinal®, LeptiSlim®, prostate cancer
