PROSTATE CANCER

As men age, especially from the age of 40 and above, certain health challenges originate especially with the prostate. These challenges with the prostate health ranges from an enlargement of the prostate gland, to infection of the prostate, and ultimately prostate cancer.

Prostate cancer, for men,is the second most prevalent form of cancer. In fact, 1 out of every 6 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime! Of those,1 out of 33 men will actually die from the disease.

Prostate cancer is no longer an old man’s disease. Men in their 20's now show early detection which plays a big role in treatmen because if you catch it early, you have a better chance of treating it, particularly when done naturally. 

There are many very healthy foods which contain significant levels of vitamin k. Vitamin k is needed by the body for blood clotting, however, too much vitamin k can contribute to the creation of blood clots in some situations. No more than 25% to 30% of a person’s diet should consist of foods high in vitamin K, which include: Broccoli, brussels sprouts, cabbage, collard greens, cucumber peel (i.e. the skin), endive, green scallion, lettuce, mustard greens, spinach, turnip green, and watercress. Garlic should be avoided for other reasons and onions should be eaten in moderation.

While proteolytic enzymes are blood thinners, it is best not to try and balance blood clotting foods and blood thinners. It is best to use moderation on both sides of the issue.
