I decided to see if an alternative doctor could advise and prescribe for helping to

control Pca cells in my blood from colonizing and creating problems. Recurrence. Presently I am > 0.1 from treatments at the university of Heidelberg. LU-177 and AC-225. He prescribed the following: Zinc, DHEA, Pregnenolone, DMG, MSM and Alpha Lipoic Acid. Asking group as to their thoughts. Thanks

Why would you take androgens? Seems insane to me.

I refused to buy them. The doctor wrote out the list . I went to buy what he recommended and walked out of his office. I for sure suspected not the way to go.

nothing can cure prostate cancer there are ways to so it. Go investigate what those have been shown to do to see why..My philosophy is don't discount anything your life is on the line.If you look at western medicine they have made fortunes with no promise of a cure..Take your own path. There is no cure, only control it as long as you can.

I've choosen to die as health as possible...I'm sure its very difficult for you right now...get another opinion from another integrative and they will tell you something different. just keep that in mind. be care listening to those stuck on one side or the other.

Could it be I am low in these items as result of his blood tests and he is trying to get my body in tune ?

That's exactly what Zytiga does - prevents biosynthesis of those androgens. It is counterproductive to take them.

For the Alpha Lipoic Acid it should be under its R form (R-Lipoid) but those who recommend that metabolic approach typically also recommend taking Garcinia Cambogia as well.

Thanks . Doctors notes not clear as to being R form. Will check out G C.

Zinc and Alpha Lipoic Acid ,I take both under advice from an alt MD . What about lycopene ? Tumeric? Melatonin? .. My point is that you’re doing great . I’ll try almost anything to rid my days of pc . Save yourself . Follow your own path . There are always doubting Thomas’s . It your life . Do as you choose . Although This is not a alt med sight . It’s Mostly concentrated here on SOC .

You were in the back seat of your 1957 chevy in a lover's lane.... Windows all fogged up and a huffin and a puffin...... And when you both were done you realized your car battery went dead from playing the radio....From that day on you always had a portable radio in the car......Ounce of prevention.....

Good luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

If the strategy is to slow the progression of PC that is not yet CR then the Lipoic acid has some theoretical role as an intracellular antioxidant to decrease ROS from mitochondria causing more DNA mutations. This may be too speculative at this point to bother with. I do take it myself along with L-carnitine. Antioxidants are tricky business!Zinc along with a zinc ionophore to help it get into the cells is a fine idea. Quercetin is a naturally derived and safe zinc ionophore not as potent as clioquinol. Here is the principle and mechanism.

Hey guy! I’ve spent $600 per month for six years now in March on nutrients . We eat mostly organic which is costly .. I had no sugar for almost two years on the onset of pc . The naturalpath believes sugar feeds all cancers . I agree . Some put me down for this . My docs are amazed that I’m clear still ?. Viva el dia ! We live for today . The more good stuff that we put I the better our chances to return to a better chemistry...My prayer to you is to overcome this beast . It’s a real mofo ...I don’t need to tell you this . You know it . We fight for our life with pc . D-3 , k-2 commonly taken together . Two products that I really like are Thorne Meriva 500-sf, it’s curcumin , and also QOL,immunokinko 750 = ahcc mushroom complex said to promote Nk( natural killer cells , some how I think these two are magical for me .. ? each to their own , follow pro advice on nutrients . Many MO s will poo poo them . Most mds don’t have much education in nutrition .. They are still in the dark . In my opinion . Save yourself anyway that you can . Make sure to strengthen your spiritual self . Let’s face it . The flesh is weak ,and weakened more by treatments . Our spiritual journey is actually more important than our physical demise . God bless🙏😷

Good job. Can you send me your complete list of supplements?Thanks

I’ve been off-line . Sorry for my delayed response .. I started 50 mg vitamin c ivs in 2015 -2016 bi-weekly upon dx .. I did petrosol c during imrt . I Stopped a few months afterwards .. Klaire labs ultra k2, rx vitamin liqui -d, eco Nugenics Hono Pure ,pure encapsulations Lycopene 20 mg . Pure encapsulations zinc 30 ..vital nutrients lipoic acid , progressive professional SAM e -200,Thorne Meriva 500-sf ,immunokinoko750 Ahcc . Naltrexone 4.5 mg before bd ,this requires a script from a compounding pharmacy .. for bone health =Thorne oscap,& vital nutrients Strontium . Lots of pure clean spring water .. Best to get an Nat md to tailor a plan to you . I also rely on a high. THC Canabis oil . This March is six years of the same .. Good luck to you 🙏 many of the standard care guys think it’s a farce . I’ve been clear of pc over five years . Will it last . Probably not . I’m hoping something else gets me before APC coms back around again for its dinner .
