| One of the most common male cancers is
prostate cancer, 50% to 70% of
men in their 70’s have evidence
of prostrate cancer but only one
in ten develop prostrate cancer
symptoms. The exact cause of prostrate
cancer is not known, but it is
linked to age, diet and lifestyle
and testosterone metabolism. Because
prostrate cancer is slow growing
the initial symptoms do not show,
later symptoms such as frequent
urination especially at night,
slow urinary stream, pain whilst
urinating, a feeling of incomplete
emptying of the bladder after
urination, dribbling after urination
and sometimes blood in the urine
are all signs of prostrate cancer.
If prostrate cancer is left to
spread other symptoms include
weight loss, pain in the bones,
fatigue and anaemia. A change
in diet can help with and to protect
against prostrate cancer. Cut
down on animal fats, include plenty
of fibre in the diet and consume
lots of fruit and vegetables.
Anti-prostrate cancer foods are
soy products, rice, green and
yellow vegetables, seafood such
as oysters, bran, whole grains,
shiitake mushrooms, pulses, garlic,
pumpkin seeds, tomatoes, nuts,
seeds (flaxseed), cabbage, Brussels
sprouts, broccoli and oily fish.
Cut down on alcohol and meat consumption
and try to maintain a healthy
weight. The following supplements
may help if you are suffering
from prostrate cancer. Coenzyme
