New recommendation for Active Surveilence.

Propaul,

Good luck with your path. Glad to hear your urology practice is also guiding you on lifestyle changes. Here's a cut/paste from an article from UCSF having to do with the importance of treating the AS patient holistically...

"Ninety-three men undergoing active surveillance took part in their first study. about half ate a vegan diet with supplements. The men participated in moderate aerobic exercise, yoga, meditation and a weekly support group session. Initial follow-up showed no cancer progression among the group that changed diet and lifestyle - while disease worsened in six men in the control group."

In general, you'll find some studies that are inconclusive on supplements, diet, etc., but there are increasing numbers of favorable results--with common sense science theory backing them up--that are tipping the scales in favor of their benefit for fighting and/or reducing the spread of PC. NONE, I would point out, that are saying that a good diet, exercise, pomegranate juice, meditation, etc will hurt.

Please do keep us up-to-date on your path, and good luck to you.
