PRIMARILY FOR MEN (AND THE WOMEN THAT LOVE US)

A rising cause of death of men is prostate cancer. Now there are some things men can do (and women can encourage us to do) nutritionally. Beginning at age 40 to 45 all men should start taking 160 mg of saw palmetto and/or 40 to 50 mg of pygeum a day. As you age or if you start getting symptoms, then double the dose.

Another substance to consider using is modified citrus pectin. A study of men with prostate cancer found that taking 15 mg of modified citrus per day caused a slowdown in the time it took their PSA  levels to double. Slowing the PSA level indicates a reduction in the aggressiveness of the cancer.
