in response to doug d.'s e-mail ..... i encourage all who have not yet read The China Study" by C. Colin Campbell PH.D. to do so ... much the same message as Anderson - avoid animal protein!

Has anyone read Dr. Katz's Guide to Prostate Health: From Conventional to Holistic Therapies, or know of him. He cites studies on diet and supplements, in addition to a primer on PCa. He is at Columbia University, where he did a study on Zyflamend and PCa. I'm thinking of seeing him for my early stage. I'm doing active surveillance with attention to diet and supplements.

Hmmmm. [.....as she stands with one hand on hips and pointing finger on the other with weight shifted.] Where I was born and reared in Fort Lauderdale, we didn't get issued "Suthuhn accents"

Oh man! That's just sad. Only 8 years and he's not buying! You definitely need a Southern accent to go with the smile!

Leave it to the communications expert to cut to the chase. After 8 years together he's not buyin' what I'm sellin' with batted eyelids and a smile.

Plan B is easy. It goes as follows: "Honey, I really want to be able to grow my own tomatoes and some basil this summer. Would you do a little digging in the garden to help me out? It shouldn't take more than a couple of hours."

This is of course asked with appropriate batting of eyelids and smile! With respect to their health, men do not respond well to logic!
Maria K Todd, MHA PhD Comment by Maria K Todd, MHA PhD on April 7, 2009 at 3:26pm
Ah, yes, but see, I wanted an excuse to plant a bunch of heirloom tomatoes, from which tasty heirloom tomato napoleons are constructed using slices of various and colorful varieties of these healthful gifts of nature alternated with goat cheese slices, drizzled with high quality balsamic vinegar reduction and sprinkled with fresh grown Genovese basil from the garden patch next to said planned tomatoes. Now I have to find another excuse.

See, I was gonna sell the idea to Alan that it would be good for him to do the garden preparation of digging and weeding "for the exercise" and then the lycopene for the prostate health. Now I have to come up with a Plan B.

You guys are in league with one another, I just know it.
Darn!

Tomatoes you grow are best used to make your own spaghetti sauce -- a habit my wife indulges in with religious fervor every year! If one plants a whole garden of tomato plants, one will have a LOT of cooking to do! Any potential impact on lowering of risk for prostate cancer is an incidental and unproven benefit.

Eating one's tomatoes in the form of large quantities of pizza, however, is associated with a significant risk for cardiovascular disease! In which case, prostate cancer is liable to be a relatively minor clinical risk by comparison.

:O)

So i guess I should not plant a whole garden of them? at least not for this, huh?
