Replies to "@westernflyer Thanks for the additional details. Found the original research paper and ran it through perplexity.ai..."
@handera Ed, this study contained TWENTY men - not thousands. Also, it failed to bring down PSA levels by at least 50% in all cases but a few.
The big takeaway was that it was well tolerated and did no harm…not exactly a ringing endorsement, which I think you would agree with.
I think your massive increase in exercise and all the favorable components of it - especially dropping excess weight and improving insulin resistance has a lot more to do with your success.
That said, the study is old and it would be great if more work was done on the connection to cruciferous vegetables and PCa. In the meantime, sprouts are delicious, packed with nutrients and low in calories so enjoy them! Best,

@handera Thanks much for the in part validation of the article's intent. And, thanks to Mayo for publishing this health news-worthy study. I happened to see the headline on "Health Google news". I have received my order of the capsule form with its ingredients as you mentioned. I will look to see my PSA in the coming months stabilizing or on a downward path. My personal take on the overall implication includes the faint assumption that some food groups with their inherent ingredients assist in the body's immune system to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. I might add that when diagnosed in 2010, my Gleason score was 3 plus 3. Very slow growth of prostate cancer. So many metrics as to overall health, etc, impact greatly any positive reaction to the dietary ingredient inhibiting prostate cancer cell growth.
