It appears that this is a simple and useful method that will reduce the number of invasive biopsies performed each year.

It is not typically wise to use aggressive traditional medicine strategies to treat this disease, as prostate cancer is a relatively slow-growing cancer and can be easily controlled if caught early.

So if a prostate cancer is found, what can you do to treat it? Basically there are nearly identical natural treatment principles for both prostate and breast cancers. These include:

• Increasing your vegetable intake
• Omega-3 oils--this is probably the most important nutrient you could take
• Vitamin E--400 units (Please note: Only natural vitamin E should be used, not synthetic. Additionally, mixed tocopherol is more preferable than alpha-tocopherol, as the gamma tocopherols are particularly useful antioxidants.)
• Vitamin D
• Exposure to adequate sunlight
• Freshly ground flax seeds
• Eliminating sugar
• Progesterone cream
• Selenium
• Stress treatment with EFT
• Avoiding pesticides
• Using broccoli or cauliflower sprouts
• Donating your blood a powerful tool to lower high iron levels (serum ferritin levels). Excess iron can be a major cause of many cancers.
  

Omega-3 oils are crucial to preventing not only cancer, but also heart disease and many other diseases. The best source for omega-3 is fish oil and cod liver oil, as, unlike other sources such as walnuts or flax seed oil, it is high in two fatty acids crucial to human health, DHA and EPA. The human brain is also highly dependent on DHA--low DHA levels have been linked to depression, schizophrenia, memory loss and a higher risk of developing Alzheimer's.

When choosing your fish oil or cod liver oil, it is important to remember that not all brands are the same. In my research--and in my clinical experience with my patients--I have found that:

1. The liquid form is superior to capsules
2. Certain brands definitely seem inferior to others
3. The Carlson's brand of fish oil/cod liver oil is of an exceptional quality and purity.

It is likely not the only brand in the world of such high quality, but up to this point it is the only one of such quality that I can recommend, so I now offer the Carlson's fish oil and cod liver oil on Mercola.com; you can also check your local health food store to see if they carry it.
