According to Ann Hsing, one of the researchers at the National Cancer Institute, men who consumed garlic-onion families up to 10 grams daily, the risk of prostate cancer 50 percent less than those who ate fewer. Hsing and colleagues interviewed a man who had cancer 238th and 471st prostate healthy men about what they eat. This study to prove the true relation between diet and cancer.

Several studies using case control study comparing the diets of cancer patients with healthy people who have shown that the vegetables are classified in the family Alliaceae reduce colon cancer, esophagus, breast, and endometrium.

Properties of long rows of onion growing since research on prostate cancer was proved that besides the right diet can reduce cancer risk, particularly onions jumga potent against prostate cancer.

Alliaceae is a onion family. In it there is garlic (Allium sativum) and onion (Allium cepa) is approximately the same nutritious, as well as onions and Garlic chives (Allium schoenoprasum) are more nutritious low. All words derived from Latin meaning smell.

The smell of garlic comes from the content-based compounds of sulfur. One is S-allyl cysteine that play a role in preventing the formation of carcinogenic substances, or triggers cancer such as N-nitrosomorpholine. N-nitrosomorpholine known to trigger liver cancer. Experts classify these sulfur compounds into a powerful group of flavonoids against cancer.

Red onions are also known to contain vitamin A and vitamin C, in which one lives is to increase the body’s immune system. In research that has been published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition stated that garlic lowers cholesterol also nutritious.

Giving 7.2 grams of extracts of garlic every day for six months on the 56 men who had high cholesterol content within their cholesterol lowered to 7 percent. Cholesterol-fighting active ingredients known as ajoene. This compound turned out to also help prevent blood clots.

It is not surprising that there is a saying that worships chinese onion as follows “If you have reached the age of 50 years and you eat garlic for 50 days, then you will get an additional 50 years of age.”

Epidemiological studies in several European countries recently reported that men who consumed a lot of boron, ie, 1.8 mg daily, 62 percent lower chance of prostate cancer than those eating half the amount.

Research on the health benefits of fish for prostate done by a team led by Dr. Paul Terry from the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, Sweden. Approximately 6000 male respondents and more than 50 percent over 55 years old when the study began in 1967. Submitted to them a single question about consumption of fish, and then monitored for 30 years.

The respondents were surveyed to gather information on consumption patterns and lifestyles, including smoking, drinking alcohol, and sports. The result, men who eat fish tend to be more active sports, like to eat fruit and vegetables, also avoid processed meat or red meat.

Omega-3 fatty acids, especially substances EPA and DHA contained in fish meat, is a key weapon to inhibit the growth of cancer cells. The findings support previous studies conducted Norrish and his colleagues in New Zealand.

Norrish team examined the consumption of foods containing EPA and DHA, and EPA and DHA concentration in the blood of 317 men with prostate cancer detected compared with 480 men who did not have cancer. The result, EPA and DHA levels in the blood of prostate cancer patients was lower (0.62 and 1:38 mol%) than non-patients (0.67 and 1:47 mol%). It shows that EPA and DHA play a role in the fight against prostate cancer.

According to the researchers, taking a multivitamin in high doses will damage the prostate. These findings might make a scene, because during this drink has become a lifestyle supplement.

Research team conducted research to determine the health benefits of multivitamins to 300 000 men. One third of respondents are accustomed to consume in high doses, approximately more than seven times a week.

Five years later, the team of researchers conducted a medical examination of the respondents.Apparently 10.241 men diagnosed with prostate cancer. Of this amount 1.476 of them suffer from high-stage cancer and 179 people died.

So the provisional estimates, in the high-dose vitamins will nourish small tumors that cause cancer. In addition, respondents in this study is the person who has prostate cancer risk because of heredity. They’re just taking a multivitamin to maintain health.

Prostate Cancer Treatment

The operation is suitable for prostate cancer stage II, the general condition of good patient, can tolerate surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy according to the patient that can not be operated or postoperative recurrence.

Because prostate cancer patients are generally elderly, often accompanied by other diseases, then the patient’s condition is often difficult to tolerate surgery and chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Recently, new methods have been used for prostate cancer with high success. The new methods include implantation of radioactive seeds, agro-helium krioblasi therapy, and hormonal therapy.

How the mechanism of fat can increase the risk of prostate cancer?

The role of fats in increasing the risk of prostate cancer occurs with several mechanisms.

• First, it proved that the fat may affect levels of testosterone, the hormones necessary for growth of prostate cells, both benign or malignant. Men who ate less fat would have the level of testosterone is relative low.
• Second, fat is a source of free radicals, and
• Third is the result of fatty acid metabolism is thought to be carcinogenic. Examples are unsaturated fatty acids omega 6 that may stimulate prostate cancer cell growth.

Correlation between fat consumption and prostate cancer risk was also demonstrated in several epidemiological studies. Giovannucci and his colleagues did a prospective study of the relationship between diet and prostate cancer. This research proved that a diet high in fat increase the risk of developing advanced prostate cancer.

In addition, there are still some other studies that support such a cohort study in Hawaii. Unfortunately, few other epidemiological studies failed to prove the same thing, among others, is a prospective study in Norway.

Thus, although many epidemiological studies and biological studies that prove the relationship between high dietary fat and risk of prostate cancer, still needed additional epidemiological studies to prove this with certainty.

1. Stage A:
   Very localized cancer, digital rectal examination or DRE could not find it.
2. Stage B:
   Localized cancer in the prostate gland, while digital rectal method can feel it.
3. Stage C:
   Cancer tissue was to invasion most prostate and penetrated the prostate capsule on the seminal vesicles, bladder neck and cavity perlvis, but there is no distant metastasis.
4. Stage D:
   With metastatic.

stage of prostate cancer

Each type of cancer have staging different ways, and each stage has its management algorithm itself. So, the more early stage cancers (mostly stage 1 and 2), the higher the survival rate. For example, cancer A: 1-year survival 90%, 2 years 60% , 5 years 50%, and 10 years 30%. This means that of 100 cancer patients A, which is still alive 90 people in one year, two years 60 people, and 10 years 30 men.  That’s why there is no cure rate, if you survive without recurrence for 5 or 10 years, it can be recovered (by a layman of course, not in medicine and statistics). So, in cancer, we’re not talking cure rate, but talking about the survival rate of 1 – 2 – 5 – 10 years, the morbidity (complications from cancer on the body), and recurrence rate.

thus, in the early stages, prostate cancer is asymptomatic. Once cancer develops, symptoms will appear but not typical, similar to symptoms of BPH (Benigh Prostatic Hyperplasia), benign prostate enlargement are diseases that are often seen in elderly men. Consequently, it is difficult to distinguish the two diseases so that the necessary checks that can detect early and simultaneously differentiate between prostate cancer and BPH.

There are some things that can increase a person’s risk of prostate cancer or cause of prostate cancer are age and family history. Hormones, diet high in fat, and toxins are also cited as risk factors for prostate cancer, although the relation is not clear.

Several prostate cancer symptoms and BHP are:

• Frequent urination;
• Difficult urination;
• Pain while urinating;
• Urine (urine), bleeding;
• Pain during ejaculation;
• bloody ejaculation fluid;
• Erectile disorders;
• hip or back pain.

Basically, a risk factor for prostate cancer is determined by two things, namely the genetic factors and environmental factors. The role of the environment is evident from studies which found an increase of migration in prostate cancer incidence in first-generation immigrants from Japan and China in the United States. From this research, we made the hypothesis that a diet or food play a role as one of the causes of the occurrence or spread of prostate cancer.

prostate

Before we talk about prostate cancer, how about we find out what is the prostate? The prostate is a small-sized sex gland in men, located below the bladder and surrounds the urethra (the urethra). The prostate plays an important role in the ejaculation fluid production. In other words, the function of the prostate is the depositary of the seminal fluid, and highly influential for a smooth journey from testicular sperm as they walked out into the channels that exist in the male penis or well-know as urethra.

What is prostate cancer?

Prostate cancer is a disease that attacks prostate gland, where prostate cells grow abnormally and uncontrollably, so immediate surrounding tissue damage can even lead to death in a cell. Risk of prostate cancer usually develops when a man 50 years old upwards.

Therefore, if you are elderly men, beware with prostate cancer because most attacks these types of cancer in older men. The incidence of prostate cancer  statistics also increased with increasing age. Unfortunately in the early stages, prostate cancer does not cause significant symptoms.

Prostate gland is a male gonad asesoir located below the bladder is shaped like an inverted rose-water. This means that large decreases in the top downwards. Size in normal adults approximately 15-20 ml. In the midst of running the base of these glands urinary tract (urethra) approximately 3 cm from the channel along the urethra the whole length of 20-25 cm.

1. geographically (eg, more cervical cancer in Asian countries)
2. ethnicity,
3. genetic variations,
4. gender (eg breast cancer in women lebiha lot), and
5. environmental influences (diet, and lifestyle) .

In addition, age is an important factor in the occurrence of cancer. Some cancers, such as Wilms’ tumor, acute lymphocytic leukemia, and Burkitt’s lymphoma, a lot of attacking a young age.

However, most cancers occur in elderly lot. Prostate cancer, stomach and colon, most likely to occur After 60 years of age. In America, more than 60% of cancers diagnosed in patients over the age of 65 years.

At the initiation phase, there was a change in the genetic material of cells caused by an agent called a carcinogen, which can include chemicals, viruses, radiation (radiation), or sunlight. However, not all cells have the same sensitivity to a carcinogen. Genetic abnormalities in cells or other substances, called promoters, causing the cells more susceptible to a carcinogen. Even chronic physical disorders can make the cells become more sensitive to having a malignancy.

In the promotion phase, a cell that has undergone the initiation will become malignant. Cells that have not passed the initiation stage will not be affected by the campaign. Therefore, it may take several factors yantuk occurrence of malignancies (combination of sensitive cells and a carcinogen).

When a cell becomes malignant, the immune system can often spoil before these malignant cells multiply and become a cancer. However, if the immune system does not operate normally, the body vulnerable to cancer risk, as happens in people with AIDS, people who use immunosuppressive drugs, and in certain autoimmune diseases. However, the immune system are not always effective, so that sometimes cancer can still penetrate this protection even if the immune system function normally.
