Prostate Cancer “Treatment” QUADRUPLES Death Risk

If you’re a guy, you never want to hear the words prostate cancer.
Other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer found in men, with over 191 THOUSAND new cases annually.
But worse yet, the scariest part isn’t even just the cancer itself – it’s mainstream medicine’s treatments for your cancer.
And while this prostate cancer “treatment” has a nice, pleasant-sounding name — ADT or Androgen Deprivation Therapy – it’s anything but pleasant.
What we should be calling these ADT, prostate cancer drugs is, “Chemical Castration…”
Trust me, if you or a loved one is told to undergo ADT, you’ll want to think twice. Because recent research has uncovered some frightening truths about this so-called “treatment” for prostate cancer.
Here’s what you need to know.
Prostate cancer is a big deal for men, with one in every nine men getting the disease. It’s also the second leading cause of male cancer death.
And just like breast cancer, prostate cancer is fueled by hormones (called androgens). ADT blocks the production of hormones – but this includes testosterone, resulting in the same outcome as castration.
ADT is becoming a more popular choice by doctors who treat prostate cancer all on the back of Big Pharma’s studies showing improved outcomes
But a new study had an alarming discovery.
Published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, this study followed 616 prostate cancer patients for five years to find out what happens when you block all male hormones with ADT.
They found that taking ADTs increases the risk of heart related death by FOUR TIMES!
But that’s not all… all of the men in the study saw their heart health decrease.
Here’s why their heart health plummeted: men taking ADT lose muscle mass, gain weight, have problems balancing blood sugar, AND their cholesterol levels increase.
So, you might fix your prostate cancer, but still die because your heart clogs up.
Not a good choice.
So, let’s look at how you can keep your prostate healthy and avoid cancer altogether.
Dr. Scott’s Prostate Health Program:
- Eat well: This means plenty of veggies and good proteins. Tomatoes, which contain lycopene, are especially good for the prostate. You should also avoid processed or sugary foods as much as you can.
- Get plenty of zinc: Foods high in zinc include pumpkin seeds, beef, and spinach. Supplement to make sure you are getting enough.
- Turmeric is an herb that is a powerful anti-cancer and antioxidant.
- Medical mushrooms such as reishi, Coriolus versicolor, maitake, and others give your immune system the boost it needs to fight cancer.
- Fish oil will help drop cancer-causing inflammation throughout the body.
- Herbs that support good prostate health include pygeum and stinging nettles.
- A fiber-like substance called beta-sitosterols are especially good for the prostate.
