Easy Step to PREVENT Aggressive Prostate Cancer
There’s a big difference between aggressive and non-aggressive prostate cancer.
A life and death difference.
Only about 30 percent of men with aggressive prostate cancer will survive past five years. Yet in non-aggressive prostate cancer, 99 percent are still alive at the 10-year mark.
What’s the difference between aggressive and non-aggressive forms of this condition?
The answer has eluded researchers for years.
Until now.
It all comes back to the bacteria in your gut.
Just yesterday I was telling you about how boosting your gut bacteria with probiotics can help you better manage stress.
Well, it could be the key to preventing an aggressive form of prostate cancer as well.
After analyzing urine and tissue samples of men with and without prostate cancer, researchers identified five specific types of bacteria that were present in men with aggressive prostate cancer.
We know that certain infections play a role in other types of cancer as well (like H.pylori in stomach cancer and HPV in cervical cancer).
So, the bacteria/cancer connection is not a new concept. But this is the first time it’s been linked to aggressive prostate cancer.
This information could help provide possibilities for future treatments that target the gut microbiome.
It also offers a potential way to prevent this type of cancer in the first place: focus on your gut health.
The best way to encourage a strong, diverse microbiome is to eat plenty of whole foods, fermented foods, and seasonal foods.
It’s also a good idea to take a quality probiotic and prebiotic to fill in any gaps in your diet.
P.S. Researchers have recently identified something you can do that can boost your outcomes if you have localized prostate cancer. Click here to learn more.
