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 😉

@handera Hey Ed, I have not eaten breakfast for over 50 yrs…my thought being that all those calories I ate the night before at dinner were stored as glycogen and waiting to be used.
If you have breakfast, it’s those calories which will be burned first and your glycogen will then be stored as fat.
I am now reading that my routine is categorized as a ‘mini-fast’ and I have a good 18 -20 hrs some days between yesterday’s dinner and today’s lunch.
It has really helped me maintain my boyish figure😉
