Change In Diet Prevents Prostate Cancer Prostate cancer is a deadly disease and a popular form of death for men around the world. Caused by changes to the prostates cell DNA and affecting certain demographics more than others. Changes in diet is proven to work in prevention which will help keep healthcare costs down because treatments are very expensive.  Inflammation Linked to Probable Cause  Studies found inflammation inside the prostate could be linked to prostate cancer due to the prostate cell's DNA alteration allowing cancerous cells to grow and get out of control although the exact cause is unknown to researchers ( American Cancer Society) . This change in your prostate cell's DNA structure has strong links to obesity (very aggressive and high probability of returning), people over 50, African Americans, and family history of prostate cancer (Mayo Clinic). Very important to keep your cell's DNA structure intact, especially if you're at a higher risk for obtainin

  Modified Citrus Pectin Treats Cancer Can modified citrus pectin (MCP) treat cancer? Its possible however more studies need to be done (Cancer Research UK). Researchers from 2007 studied MCP in cancer patients and found modified citrus pectin to improve the quality of life in cancer patients and in particular slowed the excessive growth of PSA caused by prostate cancer (Cancer Research UK).  Studies have further shown to have an enormous impact in declining certain stages of metastasis and a lesser impact on other stages (Glinsky and Raz).   Although it appears MCP does not directly get rid of cancer, it does have an impact on developed cancer. Modified citrus pectin stops the spread of cancer to other organs and improves the symptoms associated with the disease. Even though significant studies do not show getting rid of cancer completely, studies show it is possible.  Over 300,000 men die each year from the disease and a recent long-term study (12/2021) found 15 grams of MCP each da
