I hope that the link for USCF food guide is helpful to you and don't forget that my husband had BCR because his cancer had already escaped the gland, even before RP. It is just that everybody dismissed "one faintly glowing gland " (???)
I agree, so little is given as information to PC patients in general about all aspects (care, prevention, nutrition, exercise, side effects) that it is mind boggling.
Regarding "killing cancer" - we should try of not giving it an "easy time" - just succeeding of keeping the beast dormant is almost a full victory since for some patients PC can be dormant for 20 or more years and it is a huge difference of having BCR in 1-5 years and having it after 10-20 years since 15-20 might mean "never" ; ).
And lastly, but not the least, we should take into consideration our belief and attitude - one would say "well Surf this goes now into metaphysical spheres", but it does not lol - in every big and randomized study there are people who will get "placebo" (means they do not get any real medication ) and still in placebo group there are almost always people who get full response to "sugar pill medication" because they believed that they got real one ; ).
That is why placebo group is OBLIGATORY in research since they compare results in both groups and if group that got actual compound does not have significantly more patients with good response in comparison to placebo group, it is not statistically good response. People think placebo does not have response lol - no - placebo group very often has some patients that do have full response to "nothing". And we all also should know that at the same time there is such thing as "nocebo" !!! So yes, belief and attitude matters.
I am saying all of this so you know that your SHOULD feel ( as you already do ! ) empowered and optimistic when you embark on the road of healthy eating and exercising and if eating healthy gives you the feeling of control and success than by all means stay on that healthy road ; ) - you will have multiple benefits. Vegetable and fruit based diet is not only better for giving body the best chance of fighting cancer but will prevent many more diseases that might hinder your fighting power 👍
So - go on my friend 🥷✨ ; ))) ! Feel the power, BE the power - conquer the evil !!! <3 ; )))
