Can you help with this question about prostate cancer and pomegranate juice?

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?
Yes I have also heard Pomegranate juice is effective to prevent prostrate cancer due to is medicinal values. But it does not cure the disease already set in. Neither it will give any adverse indication in the Prostate specific antigen test conducted. this was confirmed to me by my Oncologist friend.





Secondly while i appreciate you are taking all precautions to contain this disease, I request you not to have fear of getting it. If you are destined for something you will get it otherwise not. Take and think everything on positive note. Nothing will happen. Best of Luck
Reply:I have heard about this too, I do not know if it is true but I do know of a couple people that are taking it that have cancer.
Reply:I read your question last night, and am surprised to find that you haven%26#039;t received any answers yet. I%26#039;ve heard this as well, and although I am not an expert on this subject, I thought I%26#039;d at least pass along a link to a good article...

As for your second question, I wasn%26#039;t able to find any information on this, but I do know that what pomegranate juice is supposed to do is lower your PSA. So I would assume that the PSA test would be accurate... I don%26#039;t know how else they would have confirmed these studies if the juice skewed the results.





Sorry if this isn%26#039;t the help you needed, but this is too good of a question to leave unanswered.
