PROSTATE CANCER

Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men after lung cancer. About 60% of prostate cancer diagnoses are in men ages 65 and over. Men with African ancestry and those with a family history have an increased risk of prostate cancer.

Detection is no longer done by digital prostate exam but by a blood prostate specific antigen or PSA test. A urine test, PCA3, a gene specific to prostate cancer, is another test. The PSA testing should begin at age 55 or sooner for those at higher risk. Since the advent of PSA testing, deaths from prostate cancer have declined almost 50%.

(Did You Know?  One in eight men in the U.S. will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in his lifetime.)

The symptoms of prostate cancer can include: frequent urination, weak flow, pain while urinating, loss of bladder or bowel control, painful ejaculation, blood in urine or semen, pain in lower back, unexplained weight loss, and fevers. Some of these symptoms can be typical of benign prostatic hypertrophy or BPH also.

The diagnosis of prostate cancer is by a biopsy. Ultrasound or more commonly, MRI assists with this procedure. Treatment depends on the extent of cancer from surgery, hormonal manipulation, radiation and chemotherapy.

Sadly, nothing totally can prevent prostate cancer but a high fiber diet and a compound called lycopene (found in tomatoes, and other red, pink and orange fruits and vegetables) can decrease the risk. Controlling diabetes decreases prostate cancer mortality.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
