@handera Those are all important efforts to look into.

I’m just personally cautious not to chase after every study - realizing that many things can cause PSA to fluctuate without having any impact on the PCa at all. Otherwise, I’d be desperately pumping myself full of supplements - some legitimate, some snake oil.

Just be cautious.

Totally agree….that’s why I use very few supplements.

If there is a clear scientifically (preferably a RCT) shown benefit, I like to go with the whole food from which the “compound of interest” is derived.

Personally, I think exercise has more scientifically backed evidence to help slow PCa progression than diet.

My approach regarding diet, was to get to an optimum BMI (22-23), at which point I eased into a “heart healthy” diet that has allowed me to maintain that optimum BMI for almost two years.

My new urologist just suggested I look into occasional 24 hour fasting…haven’t implemented that yet….but it’s on my “to research” list 😉
