Prostate Cancer by Lee Nelson

The two most common cancers in men are of the skin and prostate. If you're male and over 50, statistically you have a 50% chance of getting clinically significant prostate cancer at some point in your life.
Contrary to the statistics, prostate cancer is often preventable. And it's curable in most men. But awareness is key. Prostate Cancer--Prevention and Cure tells you all you need to know about preventing, controlling, and curing this disease.
The author, Dr. Lee Nelson, is a prostate cancer survivor. He has successfully navigated the maze of treatment choices, side effects, and meaningful lifestyle changes that can significantly affect outcome and quality of life. His pursuit of wellness led him to study thousands of articles, interview dozens of experts, and draw some eye-opening conclusions about how to prevail in the battle against prostate cancer.
Prostate Cancer--Prevention and Cure is the definitive book on the second most common cancer for men.

For more than 20 years, Lee Nelson, M.D., has kept up with the medical benefits of nutrition and its impact on disease. Nutrition's role in preventing heart disease and cancer is now well understood. Dr. Nelson, on the other hand, does not believe that nutrition alone can cure cancer, though it can help prevent it. In Prostate Cancer--Prevention and Cure, Dr. Nelson demonstrates how combining conventional medicine and complementary medicines is a far more effective combo than either alone. Dr. Nelson read over 2,000 medical publications and abstracts while creating this book.

He spoke with a number of leading professionals in the field. He also drew heavily on his personal experiences with prostate cancer and recovery. Physicians' opinions have been extensively evaluated and questioned in light of current medical knowledge, rather than being taken at face value. As Dr. Nelson puts it, If I had known the contents of this book at the time of my prostate cancer diagnosis, I would have done a lot of things differently.

My hope is that the reader will benefit from my experience and receive the best possible diagnosis, treatment, and nutritional assistance. Dr. Nelson has dedicated himself to educating men about prostate cancer since being diagnosed with the disease. He currently resides in New Zealand, where he meets with men about their medical conditions, guides them through difficult decisions, and offers diet, exercise, and other supplementary lifestyle and attitude approaches to prostate cancer treatment.
