The news that well-done red meat is being linked to aggressive prostate cancer shouldn’t be too big of a surprise to you. What’s surprising to me is how many people simply don’t care and want their meat anyway. The look on some people’s face when I suggest that they consider eating only plant-based food is telling – its almost as if I have suggested they cut off their legs. If you are one of those that just can’t imagine a life free of animal and dairy products even if it means reducing the risks of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, autoimmune disease and a host of other ailments, consider hypnosis. You can change your desires for meat and dairy easily with hypnosis.

Well-done Red Meat Linked to Aggressive Prostate Cancer

Health.com, November 23, 2011: Cardiologists and other doctors already view artery-clogging red meat as a villain, and they now have another reason to urge their patients to steer clear: A new study has found that men have a higher risk of developing aggressive prostate cancer if they consume a lot of ground beef and other red meat — especially if the meat is grilled or well-done.

The men in the study who ate about two servings of hamburger or meat loaf per week were more than twice as likely to have been diagnosed with aggressive prostate cancer as the men who ate none. But most of that increase in risk can be attributed to how the meat was cooked.

“This is another piece of evidence for the notion that red meat, particularly grilled meat, contains carcinogens that may relate to prostate cancer,” says Ronald D. Ennis, M.D., director of radiation oncology at St. Luke’s — Roosevelt Hospital Center, in New York City, who was not involved in the study.

When meat is cooked — and charred — at high temperatures over an open flame, a reaction occurs that causes the formation of two chemicals: heterocyclic amines (HCAs) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In animal studies, these chemicals have been shown to cause several types of cancer, including prostate cancer.

Although by now it is well established that red meat increases the risk of heart disease and colorectal cancer, its role in prostate cancer has been less clear. Numerous studies have investigated a possible link between meat consumption and prostate-cancer risk, but the results have been inconsistent.

Men who ate the most ground beef were 2.3 times more likely than men who ate none to have aggressive prostate cancer. Higher consumption of fatty lunchmeats (such as salami) and liver was also associated with an increase in cancer risk. On the other hand, poultry, bacon, and low-fat hot dogs and sausages appeared to have little influence on cancer risk.

Omega-3 Fatty Acids Linked to
Prostate Cancer Risk

Researchers from Seattle’s Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center looked at 3,461 participants in the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial and found that men with the most DHA in their bloodstreams were two-and-a-half times more likely to have an aggressive form of prostate cancer. Similar results were found in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition study, where men who had the highest omega-3 levels had the highest risk for prostate cancer.

Fish oil is starting to look a lot like snake oil. The new findings linking higher DHA levels to cancer add yet another reason to skip fish and fish oil supplements. The more that I research, the more convinced that I become that vegetables, whole grains and fruit are the way to go. Living on plant-based food really is quite easy and using hypnosis makes it even easier.

Got Prostrate Cancer?

Its not news that a high dairy intake increases risk for prostrate cancer. The disease caused by drinking milk and eating cheese and ice cream have been known for decades. The dairy council’s own studies show that dairy consumption takes calcium out of the body.  When I weighed 110 pounds more than I do now, much of my obesity was the result of consuming dairy products. I couldn’t imagine living without cheese and ice cream. But hypnosis for weight loss changed my life. At my Seattle hypnosis and Bainbridge Island hypnosis offices of Slender For Life™ clients learn weight loss hypnosis to change their eating habits and to end desires for unhealthy foods like dairy products.

EPIC Medical Study: High Dairy = High Prostate Cancer Risk

5 to 10% of all cancer cases are due to genetic defects, and 90 to 95 % are due to life style factors .

• For colorectal cancer, high intakes of dietary fiber, fish, calcium, and plasma vitamin D were associated with a decreased risk; while red and processed meat intake, alcohol intake, body mass index and abdominal obesity were associated with an increased risk.
• For lung cancer high fruit and vegetable intakes in current smokers were significantly associated with a decreased risk.
• For breast cancer, high saturated fat intakes, and alcohol intakes were associated with an increased risk, while in postmenopausal women BMI was positively and physical activity negatively associated with risk.
• For prostate cancer high intakes of dairy protein and calcium from dairy products and high serum concentrations of IGF-I were associated with increased risk.

Did you know that self-hypnosis for exercise may help prevent incontinence from prostrate surgery? Hypnosis is the perfect tool for exercise motivation and new studies are showing the benefits of exercise in the recovery from prostrate cancer surgery. Hypnotherapy may also be beneficial in the recovery from cancer surgery. And of course, hypnosis is the perfect tool for weight loss.

In a Reuters Health article, Exercise May Prevent Incontinence From Prostate Surgery, “A healthy weight and regular exercise may help protect men from one of the most common side effects of prostate cancer surgery, a new study suggests.

Researchers found that among 165 men who had their prostate glands removed due to cancer, those who were not obese and were getting regular exercise before surgery had the lowest prevalence of long-term urinary incontinence.

What’s more, even among obese men, those who had been physically active before surgery were less likely to be incontinent one year after surgery.

Overall, the researchers found that obese, sedentary men had the highest rate of long-term incontinence, at 41 percent. Active, non-obese men had the lowest rate, at 16 percent.

According to an article in Reuters, exercise can benefit men with prostate cancer. As little as 15 minutes of physical activity a day can substantially cut death rates in men with prostate cancer, new research hints. We recommend that men with prostate cancer do some type of physical activity for their overall health, even if it is a small amount, such as 15 minutes of activity per day of walking, jogging, biking, or mild gardening. Vigorous activity may be especially beneficial for prostate cancer, as well as overall health.

While previous studies have focused on how physical activity affects the risk of developing prostate cancer, this is the first large study to examine exercise in relation to death in prostate cancer survivors.

The Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine (PCRM), says  “Meat consumption increases the risk of prostate cancer, according to a recent study looking at more than 175,000 men as part of the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study. The men who consumed the most red meat had a 30 percent increased risk of cancer, compared with those who consumed the least. Processed red meat was associated with a 10 percent increased risk of prostate cancer with every 10 grams (about one-third of an ounce) of increased intake. Researchers also investigated cooking method and content of heme iron and nitrites and nitrates for the various types of meat consumed. Heme iron intake, nitrite and nitrate consumption, and grilling and barbecuing all were associated with higher risk.” You can find Red and Processed Meat Increases Risk of Prostate Cancer at PCRM.

Note: Statements and testimonials are representative of our top active participants using hypnosis. Some people may make little or no change with hypnosis. Why? It does take effort to make change (in any system) and it just won’t happen if you do not learn and apply the tools. Worse, some people never even complete the training and sessions and therefore never see any results. These claims are not a guarantee of your change, and may not be average of participants. Individual results will vary greatly and in accordance to your commitment, effort, determination, hard work, and ability to follow directions. Summary: As in any self-change program and with everything in life – you get out what you put in.
