Tiny Seed Stops Prostate Cancer

When it comes to prostate cancer, let me give it to you straight.
There are basically two types:
Type 1: The kind that grows so slowly it’ll never threaten your health.
Type 2: The kind that spreads through your body like a brush fire. This is the type of prostate cancer that can kill you.
But what if you could take aggressive prostate tumors and slow their growth to a crawl?
Scientists have just found a surprising way to do it… and it’s something you can start TODAY.
A new study out of Duke University has discovered that flaxseedmay be a secret weapon in the war against prostate cancer.
Men who were eating flaxseed on a regular basis had tumors that grew 30% to 40% slower then men who didn’t supplement with flaxseed.
There is something in flaxseed that prostate cancer hates… though scientists aren’t sure what it is yet.
The best part about using flaxseed is that it has no side effects and gives a nutty taste with almost anything you mix it into.
One of the easiest ways to get flaxseed in your diet is to buy the ground seed mix and put it in your oatmeal. You could also try sprinkling it onto a salad or mix it into spaghetti sauce or meat loaf.
Flaxseed is a good first step, but there is much more you can do to fight prostate cancer.
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.
- Herbs that support good prostate health include pygeum and stinging nettles.
- A fiber-like substance called beta-sitosterols is especially good for the prostate.
Health and Happiness,
