Hi, and thanks for the links on the nutrition stuff. They are fascinating and provide sime excellent questions to the medical world who largely seem oblivious to the impacts of what we put into our bodies each and every day (other than meds)!
@drcopp I guess I’m a dead man, then. After becoming allergic to ted meat from a tick bite, I ate only chicken, turkey and fish for six years - many times eating poultry 4X/week.
Also, I eat eggs - either in foods or alone scrambled or hard boiled. I really have a hard time with the ‘evidence’ produced in this article; the amounts consumed are so minimal that almost every male on earth should die of metastatic PCa.
And where are all those years of evidence linking red meat to increased rates of PCa? Sorry, don’t buy it…
Not attacking you - and many thanks for the article - but until better head to head studies are done, I plan on continuing my present diet.
Don’t have the link, but do some research on flax seed oil re: prostate cancer. Total misinformation based on anecdotal observation. Turns out the men with PCa had a genetic metabolic flaw which predisposed them to build up high levels of ALA in their prostates…which again had nothing to do with getting the disease!

The interesting thing about the egg issue Is that it’s the yolk that’s the problem. The egg whites apparently are not a problem to eat.
So just make sure you don’t eat one egg a day. Maybe two a week should be OK.
I’ve seen a few other articles about eggs and prostate cancer that confirm what you’re reading.
