Pomegranate is not only a delicious fruit to eat but also it has a powerful protective effect. Drink some POM juice today.
Garlic is a great anti-oxidant, not only helps to prevent different type of cancers but also improve heart health. Get some garlic daily!
Flaxseed powder not flaxseed oil please! Flaxseed helps to balance men’s hormone. However, do not take flaxseed oil as studies have shown that it may negatively affect the prostate.
Reducing the fatty steak and more leafy greens will improve your PSA level and of course will reduce the risk of cancer. Adding to this lifestyle is Exercise. The end result is weight loss.
Avoid estrogen exposure…how? We are exposed to synthetic estrogen everyday such as BPA in plastic bottles, canned food, pop, and much more.
Avoid eating burnt meat. Dark charcoaled meat need to be disposed and should not be a delicacy.
