Prostate Cancer - 3 Tips To Prevent It

In the United States alone tens of thousands of men die from prostrate cancer yearly.  I feel that it's completely unnecessary for anyone to die of cancer since there are many natural cancer cures, but let's take a look at how to prevent prostate cancer.


It's extremely rare for men under the age of 50 to have prostate cancer, though when it happens this is usually due to abnormal genes inherited from your family. For reasons we aren't sure of at this time, DNA can be abnormal at birth or become abnormal, resulting in various types of cancer, though this isn't common. 

Tips To Prevent Prostate Cancer

1. Stop Smoking - One of the most important steps you can take to help prevent cancer, prostrate or otherwise, is to do your best to have a healthy lifestyle. If you smoke, one of the best lifestyle changes you can make is to stop. Recent studies have not found a direct link from smoking to prostrate cancer; but it is believed that it can have adverse affects on DNA and could cause malignant cancer growths causing it to spread more rapidly through the prostrate and into other parts of the body. (Journal of Urology (Vol. 169: 512-516).

Not only can smoking speed up the spread of cancer cells throughout your body, but it also causes major damage to your entire respiratory system. This can lead to problems with your immune system, which is a huge contributor for preventing any disease.  If your immune system is compromised you're more vulnerable to disease and cancer.

2. Eat Healthy - Other studies have shown that a healthy diet can also decrease the odds of the early onset of prostate cancer. Diets which are high in fiber and organic fruits and vegetables provide your body with the vitamins it needs to remain strong and healthy. It keeps your immune system up, which is your first defense to disease. Following a raw food diet can increase your healthy and vitality while helping to prevent cancer. Even if you've already been diagnosed with cancer, a raw food diet can help!

3. Get Exercise - A sedentary lifestyle not only leads to weight gain, muscle atrophy, and heart problems, but it lowers your immune system. You don't have to get crazy about exercise, but get some each and every day so that your body is taking in and processing oxygen. Every cell in your body needs oxygen to stay strong and healthy (along with proper nutrition) and it's one of the fastest ways to boost your immune system. So not only will you help your prostrate, but you'll lower the odds of contracting other life-threatening diseases.

Although prostrate cancer can be a life threatening disease it doesn't have to be. With positive lifestyle changes the chances of you getting or dying of prostrate cancer are small.
