ProstateNinety five per cent of men examined after death were found to have a problem with prostate including prostate cancer and only 5% of those with problems actually died of prostate cancer as opposed to with prostate cancer! This should perhaps put into perspective the number of men who are treated needlessly with drugs and other procedures, including intrusive surgery, with a litany of known side effects which far outweigh the risks if left untreated. Even the test used to diagnose prostate cancer, prostate specific antigen or PSA is so prone to errors as to make it highly unreliable yet it is still regarded as the criterion for whether or not treatment is dispensed. The prostate gland is susceptible to inflammation from infection by pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungus/Candida and parasites) and also from toxins such as metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury etc), chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, preservatives etc), radiation (DECT phones, mobiles and masts, air travel etc) and drugs (NSAIDs, heart drugs, chemotherapy etc). The treatment of prostate is to address the causative factors and to supply the essential tools for reduction of inflammation and proper healing and regeneration of healthy tissue, which include amino acids, vitamins, minerals and especially the omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, as well as probiotics, soluble and insoluble fibre from fruits, vegetables and whole grains, not forgetting adequate amounts of water, a regular daily exercise regime and sunlight, when possible.
