A healthy body can overcome prostate cancer because we all posses a superb system of natural defenses against all diseases, and it is called the immune system. The causes of prostate cancer are known but our orthodox treatments never address them but instead focus solely on the problem itself which is the growth alone. Before you can successfully overcome prostate cancer you need information on its causes so you can address and remove these causes and assist the body to heal again.

There are four characteristics with every person diagnosed with prostate cancer and they are; a weak immune system, a lack of oxygen in the cells, excessive toxins and acidity. Are we fixing those with our current treatments? No, there are only natural ways to remedy those. Reversing prostate cancer is all about correcting the reasons why it first appeared.

Nutrition is very important to a person with prostate cancer and by making changes to your diet and consuming mainly fruit and vegetables in their natural state will automatically strengthen a weak immune system and turn an acid diet into a more alkaline diet. The typical western diet which is high in animal fats is a more acid diet. By making changes to a plant based diet you are consuming healing foods and it’s well known that many of them have cancer fighting properties.

Fresh fruit and vegetables are man's natural food, for instance research has found that both tomatoes and broccoli contain phytonutrients that are beneficial in both fighting cancer and keeping us cancer free. Also increase your consumption of omega 3 fatty acids which are found in flax seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, walnuts and especially fish, such as salmon, tuna and sardines.

There have been thousands of chemicals enter the marketplace over the last couple of decades without adequate testing for human health. We are surrounded by them as we breathe them in as in exhaust gases and industry pollution; we apply them to our skin as in personal care products and many contain parabens, a known carcinogenic substance. They are also in our processed foods as additives, such as food colorings, and most food colorings are from artificial sources. Then there is bisphenol A also called BPA, a toxic substance widely used in the manufacture of plastic products.

Exercise will correct a lack of oxygen in our cells but the main reason exercise is important is to boosts our immune system. Prostate cancer is simply a disease of an immune system that’s been weakened and allowed cancer cells to become established. Our immune system relies on muscular activity to function properly because a healthy immune system defends the body against all diseases and will eliminate bacteria, viruses and other foreign invaders including cancer cells.

It’s important to realize that prostate cancer is not just a disease of the prostate but a disease of the whole body. It’s actually a sign that something is wrong so surgically removing the prostate or any other of our orthodox treatments doesn’t solve the problem. Many of these harsh treatments are causing incontinence and impotence so it is essential to deal with the reasons why it became cancerous and remove those reasons. By dealing with those four causes, prostate cancer is an entirely curable disease.

To reverse prostate cancer cut back on meat, eggs and dairy products and eat a more plant based diet. Avoid hot dogs, bacon and pressed meats because of the nitrates they contain. Also avoid burning meat as with barbecue cooking because of the cancer causing chemicals called heterocyclic amines or HCA’s that can form.

By taking responsibility for your own health you can improve your chances of reversing prostate cancer as the body strives to heal itself automatically every single day. All you need to do is to assist it by making these changes.
