Prostate Health

The mineral Selenium has been shown to induce DNA repair and synthesis in damaged cells, to inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells, and to induce the self-destruct sequence the body uses to eliminate worn out or abnormal cells (apoptosis). Grown or raised under ideal soil conditions, Brazil nuts are the most highly concentrated source of selenium. Enjoy just one Brazil nut each day and ensure your selenium levels remain OK. Other sources are sunflower seeds, oats, barley, shiitake mushrooms, chicken eggs, tuna and snapper.

 

VITAMIN E is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for normal reproduction and an anti-oxidant that neutralizes free radicals in the body. Vitamin E acts as a catalyst for Lycopene, activating its cancer-combating properties. Vitamin E, gamma-tocopherol, inhibits prostate cancer cell proliferation, without affecting healthy prostate cells.and prevents oxidative stress by working together with a group of nutrients that prevent oxygen molecules from becoming too reactive. Sources of vitamin E include mustard greens, turnip greens, chard, spinach, parsley, almonds, sunflower seeds, papaya, olive oil, sunflower seed oil, and peanut oil.

 

VITAMIN D from sunlight specifically targets cancers not caused by Testosterone. Avoid heat overexposure and get at least 20 mins of sunlight  every day. EAT as much green leafy vegetables and yellow & orange fruits rich in Beta-Carotene. Beta-Carotene works with Vitamin D to balance the low tissue level of Lycopene in the tissues and restricts the rapid multiplication of cancer cells.
