How To Avoid Prostate Cancer

Prostate Cancer is one of the leading causes of death in older men. It's prevalence increases by ten per cent per decade as men get older. So by age ninety, ninety percent of men have prostate cancer. Though it is a cancer, it is generally benign and most old men have it without knowing it. If it spreads though, it can be devastating and deadly. Linus Pauling got prostate cancer by age ninety and believed he had slowed it's appearance by taking massive doses of vitamin C for most of his adult life. Oddly, the vitamin C didn't slow the appearance of his prostate cancer as he came up in the middle of the curve for the formation of prostate cancer in older men. He believed massive daily doses of vitamin C extended his lifespan too, but it was actually his caloric restriction that slowed his aging and allowed him to live longer. He consciously ate half as much food as he normally would have, which is what the CR society members do daily. Linus also had sex daily as he believed that lengthened his life too. It sure made it worth living! The prostate is particularly sensitive to the accumulation of fat in its parenchymal tissues. Thus a very low fat diet is recommended to avoid prostate cancer and all other cancers as well. Fat is a co- carcinogen, though it is not a carcinogen in itself. Fat invites cancers to grow. That is the take home message. These techniques are described in my book as I show you how to live a life extension style life and avoid the diseases of aging and death by heart disease, cancer, and stroke. http://www.lifeextensionbooks.net/ http://www.drdougikeler.com/ http://www.blogger.com/
