Is Prostate Cancer The Real Mad Cow Disease?

There is a very direct correlation between the over consumption of meat

and prostate cancer. Your prostate cancer risk factor exposure is

significantly increased.

Just to let you know I love my steaks medium rare, therefore is was

shocking news to me.

 

The irony of meat and prostate cancer

 

 

Feeding the man meat actually actually shuts down his immune system and

turns him into a woman!

 

Meat is loaded with hormones such as IGF-1 which is suspected to cause

cancer and man-made xenoestrogens such as " zeranol " which works like the

deadliest estrgoen called estradiol - the real cause of prostate cancer.

 

 

 

 

If like me, you love meat, this section will inform you on why

commercially processed meat is bad and why you may want to substitute

them with free range beef, bison, free range chicken and free range eggs

in order to avoid the link between meat and prostate cancer.

 

You are at the top of the food chain. Being on top means that we are

hugely exposed to whatever " poisons " the animals ingest. The commercial

production process of beef, pork, lamb and poultry produce " poisons "

that establishes the link between meat and prostate cancer. This is the

main problem.

 

Its all in the dollars. In order to reduce costs and speed up

production, modern captivity methods, hormones, pesticides, and

herbicides are used.

 

To be efficient, the modern captivity methods tend to cram the animals

together. This results in the animals living on toxic soil and in

unsanitary conditions. Under these conditions, the animals are stressed,

resulting in overproduction of stress hormones called cortisol. Excess

cortisol in our system is bad because it shuts down our immune system.

 

The corn feed fed to the animals is another link between meat and

prostate cancer.

 

Herbicides e.g. Atrazine are used in corn cultivation. The corn is then

used as feed for cattle. When you eat the beef, you will be consuming a

large amount of Atrazine. Atrazine lowers testosterone levels. Atrazine

is an estrogen mimicking estrogen, an xenoestrogen. It has been found to

increase the prostate size which is the first step to prostate cancer

 

Exposure to herbicides (e.g. Atrazine) have been shown to be a

significant contributor to the prostate cancer risk factors of farmers.

 

 

Your meat is turning you into a woman.

 

Conventional prostate cancer hormone treatments insist that testosterone

causes prostate cancer, maybe that explains the FDA's following actions:

 

 

The FDA still allows the use of Bovine Growth Hormones, BGH. An example

is a drug known as " zeranol " e.g. Ralgro. It's an estradiol type hormone

pallet inserted in the cow's ear and mimics estrogen, making the cow

retain water, hence growing fat faster on less food. Eating supermarket

meat increases your estrogen levels.

 

Estrogen! Yes. Alternative treatments prostate cancer aims to decrease

your estrogen levels.

 

The European Union has banned Bovine Growth Hormones from their dinner

plates. Is it a wonder why North America has one worst prostate cancer

statistics in the world?

 

In the prostate milk section, I mentioned the presence of the hormone

insulin-like growth factor, IGF-1, in milk. This is the same with

supermarket beef. Elevated levels of IGF-1 is very closely linked to

prostate cancer.

 

 

Supermarket beef is loaded with phosphorus.

 

Too much phosphorus results in leeching of calcium from our bones.

Excess calcium in the bloodstream results in lower blood levels of the

several active forms of vitamin D which are known to retard prostate

cancer cells.

 

 

Prostate cancer cells thrive in acidic conditions.

 

Another meat and prostate cancer link - decreased Vitamin D.

 

The sulphur containing animo acids from animal protein tend to make the

blood acidic. By coincidence, Traditional also follows

the principle that meat is acidic. Acidic blood also suppresses active

Vitamin D production.

 

Use litmus paper to check the acidity level of your body.

 

I cannot emphasize enough how important Vitamin D is to fighting

prostate cancer.

 

 

Meat and prostate cancer link: Too much Omega-6 fatty acids in our diet.

 

 

Currently most Americans eat a Omega-6:Omega-3 dietary ratio that falls

between 20:1 and 50:1. The optimal ratio is most likely closer to the

original ratio of 1:1.

 

The corn feed used contains high levels of Omega-6. Excess Omega-6 then

gets into our body via commercially produced poultry and eggs. Free

range chicken, free range beef contain very low levels of Omega-6.

 

Omega-3 fatty acids, from cold water fish and flaxseeds retards prostate

cancer tumor growth.

 

Do we completely give up meat to avoid for prostate cancer cure?

 

In pre-historic days, we were hunters and gatherers. It was easier to

get food by gathering rather than hunting. The human diet therefore

consisted of occasional hunted meat, more legumes, green and orange

colored vegetables, roots (sweet potatoes), which were gathered. That's

why the meat and prostate cancer link did not exist.

 

For the ideal diet prostate cancer, the more meat you give up, the

faster prostate cancer cure should occur. Instead of 10 - 12 times per

week, eat 0 - 7 times per week.

 

Unable to give up meat completely, perhaps to achieve balance between

meat and prostate cancer, consider free range beef, free range meats

like bison, ostrich or free range chicken.

 

Organic beef is not free range beef. Organic meat refers only to the

feed, hormones, pesticides, herbicides and antibodies that are not given

to the animals. But they may still be in captivity, so the stress

hormones will be ingested by you.

 

Free range meats have the advantage of less fat, more muscle and less

stress hormones present. Studies have shown that levels of CoQ10 is very

low in commercial livestock compared to free range animals or wild game.

 

 

As we get older we produce lesser CoQ10. Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), has been

shown to have both anti-cancer and immune system enhancing properties.

CoQ10 also gives your heart and brain energy while lowering your blood

pressure levels. Organic beef or chicken is not free range beef or free

range chicken, so it may not give you the required CoQ10.

 

Free range meat is more expensive, but you should not be eating too much

meat any way - pretend you are a hunter and meat is a treat.

 

In comparison to Europe, North America has more than 250,000 cases of

prostate cancer diagnosed each year. It is evident that the meat and

prostate cancer link is very real. Too much commercially produced meat

and milk are the main causes of prostate cancer. So is prostate cancer

the real mad cow disease?
