Prostate cancer testimonial

Just posted this evening at the Yahoo Oleandersoup Group:

This group encouraged me enough so that I rejected the usual cut, burn, poison
route and started slowly with JB diet last August. Now I would like to report
briefly what I have been doing and the outcome to date which may be an
encouragement to those who have a similar problem and start from the same base
as me.

In July a biopsy confirmed that I had PCa 3+3=6. The urologist was ready with
his scalpel but allowed me to see the radiologist first who convinced me that
radiation would do the trick, so I bought the very expensive hormone treatment
pills he prescribed for me before going to get radiated. Then I had a few weeks
grace which I used to study alternative treatments. As a result of doing a lot
of reading and internet research I decided to go for alternative treatment. The
pills I bought are still in the fridge and so I have had no other treatment than
what I describe below.

A graph I plotted of the PSA progression showed a doubling time of about 2.5
years and it had reached 11.8 when I had the biopsy. I started slowly in August
with the JB protocol which was easier than I thought, though I could not stand
the taste of FOCC on salad and I only take it with fruit for breakfast and
dinner. Actually I take not much raw vegetables but instead drink fresh carrot
and beetroot juice every aternoon and green tea. I take hot veg soup every
evening and a glass of red wine. We buy BIO products whenever posible. It was
not so difficult to do without animal products thanks to the wonderful support
of my wife. (I do miss her chocolate cakes though). Apart from the diet I am
taking with each meal A gellule of Sutherlandia OPC and 1500 IU D3 and a few
apricot kernels or B17. In the morning I take Selenium and Zinc tablets and a
gellule of Milk Thistle. Nuts or oatmeal bicuits I may snack on when I feel like
it. It seems that I can get away with eating chocolate (dark, 85% cocoa) to
which I am addicted. Apart from the PSA drop the other major effect is a loss of
8kg since I started the diet. I hope not to loose more.

. . .

My PSA has been steadily dropping since I started the protocol apart from an
alarming leap in January which I put down to having been tested when I had flu
symptoms. The PSA is today at 7.13, thus the PSA value has effectively fallen
40% in just over 7 months. Dare I imagine that by October I will be <4PSA?

It is amazing that here in France very few people try alternative methods for
PCa. I notice that nearly all postings on the internet on this subject are in
English which may be a reason. I am only the second person my urologist has had
who turned down the mainstream treatment. But he did say that he might do the
same as me if ever he gets the PCa!!!!!!!!!!!

Wishing all good progress on their road to recovery
