I have a strong family history of prostate cancer (father %26amp; older brother). I am now over 65 and my PSA tests have remained at normal levels I have that test and a rectal exam by a urologist done annually. I%26#039;ve heard recently that pomegranate juice may be of value in treating men wiith prostate cancer whose cancer is still progressing despite radiation and/or hormonal therapy. What I%26#039;d like to know is this:
(1) Is there any evidence that it might help in preventing or delaying onset of the disease? and
(2) Is there any indication it could interfere with early diagnosis by skewing the PSA test?
Can you help with this question about prostate cancer and pomegranate juice?
Why don%26#039;t you ask your doctor? Most of the men (boys) who answer questions here are too young to even think of prostate cancer! They are more obsessed about sex!
I think this pomegranate juice theory is relatively new, and no real studies have been done. Your best bet is to keep on having the PSA tests regularly. You are at the age where it is very important to do this.
I have no idea whether the juice would interfere with the PSA test or not. Again, ask your doctor. And just because there has been a lot of prostate cancer in your family, doesn%26#039;t guarantee you will get it. Just keep having those tests! If you should get it, treatment is so much better these days than it was years ago.
Good luck!
Reply:Here%26#039;s one definition of pomegranae juice, but there%26#039;s no mention of curing cancer.
Pomegranate Fruit
The exotic red pomenengrante fruit is another exemplification of how fruits and vegetables are incredibly rich sources of healing constituents including antioxidant compounds and pigments. The juice of the pomegrante fruit is exceptionally rich in polyphenol compounds which act as potent antioxidants in the body that intrinsically target the arteries. Recent studies with pomegranante juice have demonstrated that the constitueunts it delivers helped to prevent artierial plaque formation and significantly reduces the oxidation of LDL cholesterol. The latter affect has been attributed to the observation that pomegranante increased the levels of the enzyme paraoxonase, which has been found to break down oxidized cholesterol.
Reply:Nope a recent study failed to produce any evidence it did any good at all for any medical malady
Reply:I haven%26#039;t come across pomegranate juice in my research, but the pips in pomegranates could contain B17, which, would help tremendously.
Please spend some time studying this site to answer lots of questions,
This is an article worth reading for anyone who needs to be disabused of the belief that the orthodox cancer treatments with toxic chemo-%26quot;therapy%26quot; actually work. Since when is the destruction of one%26#039;s immune system with toxic chemo and radiation therapeutic? And how does cutting out a part of the body solve a %26#039;whole-body%26#039; problem? Something to ponder while reading the article.
The 5-year survival figures, (for orthodox treatment), not to be confused with the successful treatment of the disease, for the major cancers are:
stomach - 5 percent
trachea, bronchus and lung -5 percent
breast -50 percent
oesophagus -5 percent
large intestine - 22 percent
pancreas - 4 percent
liver - 2 percent
According to the government%26#039;s own figures, around 2 percent of chemotherapy recipients are still alive after 5 years: the term %26#039;alive%26#039; is used, here, in its literal sense: i.e. not yet clinically dead.
%26#039;Chemotherapy and radiotherapy will make the ancient method of drilling holes in a patient%26#039;s head, to permit the escape of demons, look relatively advanced...the use of cobalt...effectively closes the door on cure.%26#039;17
The five year survival rates for the different onslaughts are: 11
Surgery - 22 percent
Radiotherapy -12 percent
Surgery/radiotherapy combined - 6 percent
Chemotherapy plus others - 2.5 percent
Chemotherapy alone - 1.6 percent
.none of which has stopped the cancer industry from carrying out the same procedures, day in, day out, for decades: with the same deadly, inevitable results.
%26#039;It is utter nonsense to claim that catching cancer symptoms early enough will increase the patient%26#039;s chances of survival: not one scientist or study has proven that in any way. My studies have proved conclusively that untreated cancer victims live up to four times longer than treated individuals. If one has cancer and opts to do nothing at all, he will live longer and feel better than if he undergoes radiation, chemotherapy or surgery, other than used in immediate life-threatening situation.%26#039;
EAT:
Organically-grown, if possible, fruit, vegetables, peas, beans, rice: chemically-grown carrots are out. Non-organic cabbage, broccoli, sprouts, mushrooms etc. should be boiled for a couple of minutes in salted water, drained and rinsed, then cooked. Lettuce and similar foods which cannot be cleansed with this process or peeled should be home-grown or avoided.
Emphasise raw foods; whole grain breads; soya products: tofu, soymilk, miso.
Eat B17 foods regularly - seeds of apricot, peach, plum, cherry, apple; sprouted alfalfa, mung and wheat seeds; millet, lentils, watercress, lima beans, blackeye beans, broccoli, cabbage, buckwheat, linseed etc. (Hard seeds like peach and apricot should be broken open, and the soft inside eaten)
Garlic is the supreme plant from a physician%26#039;s and a cook%26#039;s point of view: eat it raw, cooked: grow it: use it as a medicine for everything from cancer and tuberculosis to coughs, colds, infections, high blood pressure, whooping cough, chemical/heavy metal/radiation detoxification etc., etc.
Take a look at the site below which explains many misunderstood things about the cancer industry, and has some natural cures too.
