The relationship between Hispanic men and prostate cancer began some years back when the disease was found to be the most common type of cancer among the race group. That the disease was later found to be the second leading reason for cancer death in the race further strengthened the association between Hispanic men and prostate cancer.
The latter was revealed in studies from 2001, which showed 7,000 Hispanics diagnosed with prostate cancer as well as 1,200 prostate cancer deaths.
The leading cause of cancer death is lung cancer among US men in general, as well as Hispanic men and prostate cancer is the most diagnosed of all types, aside from skin cancer. Prostate cancer is also more prevalent among African Americans than Caucasians, while occurring less in American Indians and Asians.
Hispanic Men and Prostate Cancer - What About Cure Rates?
In late 2004, associations between Hispanic men and prostate cancer came to the forefront of medical discussions. New York Presbyterian Hospital and Allen Pavilion reported the largest study of its kind in the Journal of Urology, which stated that:
1. Hispanics and Non-hispanic White Americans show practically the same success rates for prostate cancer therapy (i.e., 81% for Hispanics, 82% for Non-hispanics).
2. […] Continue Reading…

Cancer of the prostate and broccoli therapy was the buzz in US medical circles (and medical journals) from 2003 to 2004. Studies and opinions were being published all over the place proving cancer of the prostate and broccoli to be disease and cure.
One study published in a June 2003 issue of Journal of Biological Chemistry, reported that cruciferous veggies (i.e., broccoli, as well as cauliflower and kale) inhibit prostate cancer cell growth in humans. What?s more, they could even prevent cancer!
Cancer of the Prostate and Broccoli Treatment - How It Works
Cancer of the prostate and broccoli treatment is possible because the veggie contains phytochemicals that inhibit and prevent cancer in the prostate gland. Broccoli therapy has also proven effective in preventing cancers of the colon, breast, and endometrium.
Cruciferous veggies have a compound that is naturally converted by the human body into a potent male-hormone blocker. This is how prostate cancer cells are stopped from dividing and growing.
Cancer of the prostate and broccoli studies show that cancer cells treated with the compound showed 70% less growth than untreated cells.

The lycopene in tomatoes and tomato-based products, such as ketchup and tomato sauce, has long been proven […] Continue Reading…

Prostate infection and Colloidal Silver are associated in that Silver is known to destroy all sorts of viruses, even as it boosts the immune system. This seeming paradox is why prostate infection and colloidal silver therapy intrigues many scientists to this day.
Prostate Infection and Colloidal Silver ? What It Does?
Colloidal Silver provides support for the human body?s T-cells as they work against foreign organisms and toxins that have made their way into the bloodstream. It acts like a backup immune system, in case your real one isn?t adequate to fight environmental, stress, and disease-related toxins.
Since bacteria, such as staphylococcus and streptococcus, are known to cause prostate infection and Colloidal Silver has been proven to destroy bacteria, treatment becomes possible.
Aside from the bacteria mentioned above, clinical research reveals that Colloidal Silver can kill the following inside of 4 minutes.
- Viruses
- Fungi
- Pathogenic organisms
What?s more, scientists say that they haven?t yet encountered a microbe that Colloidal Silver can?t kill inside 5 minutes, even when the Silver is diluted as much as 5 parts/million.
Since it?s so powerful, you?d have to worry about side effects, right? Well, future studies can always reveal complications we haven?t yet discovered today. But, so far, trials show […] Continue Reading…

Problems with prostate infection (also called prostatitis) often afflict men in their 30s to 50s. But even older men may get prostatitis. Aside from the usual symptoms getting worse, mistreatment can also worsen problems with prostate infection.
For instance, the wrong kind of massage therapy can lead to severe pain, infection of other parts of the body, and even hemorrhage.
Problems With Prostate Infection - Four Prostatitis Types
Problems with prostate infection occur due to bacteria in the first two types of prostatitis. The causes of the other two are still unknown.
1. Acute bacterial. Occurs suddenly. Symptoms are serious chills, fever, blood in urine. Needs to be directly treated by a doctor. It?s the easiest to detect and cure among all types. Unfortunately, it?s also the least common.
2. Chronic bacterial. Doesn?t occur suddenly. Symptom is recurring bladder infection. Cause could be some prostate defect that makes the urinary tract collect bacteria.
3. Chronic prostatitis or pelvic-pain disorder. Most prevalent yet least understood. Symptoms recur without warning and include discomfort or pain in the bladder or groin.
4. Asymptomatic prostatitis. Since it has no symptoms, it will only be detected if your doctor is examining you for prostate cancer or infertility. The condition doesn?t necessarily […] Continue Reading…
