Prostate Cancer Treatment Causes Heart Disease and Diabetes

One common treatment for prostate cancer is to use hormone-disrupting drugs to the point of chemical castration (depressing testosterone production to nothing). Another approach is actual castration. According to a new study, either procedure causes significant risk for heart disease, and chemical castration with a GnRH agonist also causes diabetes.

Coffee Reduces the Risk for Diabetes and Prostate Cancer

Several new studies support the idea that coffee may be quite good for your health – even in higher amounts. In one study it was shown that those consuming 3-4 cups of coffee per day had a 25% risk reduction for type two diabetes. In another study it was shown that the highest coffee drinkers had a 60% less chance of developing aggressive prostate cancer.

Gamma Tocotrienol Helps Kill Prostate Cancer Stem Cells

Prostate cancer treatment targets existing tumor cells but does little to address the source of new prostate cancer cells which come from a smaller group of prostate cancer stem cells. A variety of cell experiments show for the first time that gamma tocotrienol can turn off the activity of these prostate cancer stem cells in existing cancer and stop them from having activity in the first place.

Fish Oil Reduces Prostate Cancer Growth in Humans

Researchers at UCLA’s Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have proven that fish oil combined with a low fat diet can reduce the number of rapidly dividing prostate cancer cells. This is important because many men don’t even know they have prostate cancer and others are trying to change their lifestyles and curtail the problem as part of medically supervised surveillance. This study is clear cut proof that fish oil is a potent anti-prostate cancer nutrient.
