Thank you! My urologist said their only clinical trial is with Curcumin. He says Curcumn has shown some effectiveness. I’ve read that white button mushrooms have shown promise as well. I would be open to any other clinical trials!

@tvz, good that you are talking to your urologist about possible clinical trials and integrative approaches to cancer care.

When considering complementary or alternative treatments, be open-minded yet skeptical. Learn about the potential benefits and risks.

Keep in mind that natural substances can also have toxicities, adverse side effects and treatment interactions. Supplements are not regulated and can be marketed without rigorous clinical testing.

More and more cancer centers and oncology specialists are open to discussing and integrating complementary medicine in programs called Integrative Medicine or Integrative Oncology. Integrative medicince is offered at many cancer centers of excellence, including Mayo Clinic.

Here's a link to more information about Mayo Clinic's Integrative Medicine programs

In this Mayo Clinic Q & A Podcast. Dr. D'Andre talks about how integrative oncology can be incorporated into conventional cancer care at Mayo Clinic.
