I've read her book and was left more confused than ever. I'd love someone to tell me the metabolic pathways that affect prostate cancer, I gather that prostate cancer is different from most in that it doesn't use glucose, at least in its early stages.

Yes, her book, which she has updated but I haven't read the update, was very confusing on dosing and sequencing and other things. Interesting, though, and she now has a course that can be purchased at a reasonable price (I haven't).

What an interesting article. How does I know which pathway to treat? Thanks

I am really not an expert but I believe that the cancer can change pathways they use by mutating if nothing else.

Maybe you could slow down the progress but you could not halt it forever.

I was using statins, aspirin, Metformin, doxycycline and vitamin C.

I am now using only statins. I would use Metformin but I don't want to use it all the time.

Even statins I will stop during the summer.

Before I was using them all the time but realised that all drugs have side effects.

When I was using Metformin my vitamin B12 level dropped. I am not sure how good is that for my muscles and bones long term?

Aspirin could cause diverticulitis, bleeding etc.

Doxycycline could increase intracranial pressure.

Statins could cause that your skin will produce less vitamin D during the summer. How good is that for your bones and in general for your health?

I am not saying that there is no effect but just be very careful with what are you doing and check your vitamin B12 levels.

Not what you're looking for?
