Questions & Answers


[TEST] Once a prostate gland has been removed because of cancer, can diet help prevent the cancer from recurring?

[TEST]

Nobody knows for certain. Obviously, if all the cancer cells and prostate cells have been removed by surgery, then dietary supplements would not be needed to prevent recurrence. If any cancer cells were left behind, perhaps, they could help prevent these cancer cells from accumulating more mutations and becoming more aggressive.

[TEST] What exercises do you recommend both before and after retropubic prostate surgery?

[TEST] In addition to Kegel exercises, I recommend overall physical fitness exercises. Good physical conditioning is helpful in recovery from prostate cancer surgery.
