Drs. Bill Harris and Rhonda Patrick comment on omega-3 prostate cancer study SELECT trial
“Bill Harris and Rhonda Patrick discuss a questionable, potentially spurious association between omega-3 and selenium supplementation and prostate cancer. While omega-3 is more well-known for generally promoting cancer protection, the 2008 SELECT trial seemed to show something alarming: an association between vitamin E, omega-3, and selenium supplementation and prostate cancer.”
Zinc
“Analysis of the questionnaires revealed that higher intake of dietary zinc from meat and seed sources was significantly correlated with an increase in the overall risk of benign prostatic hyperplasia. Separate studies have found that in patients with prostate cancer, tissue zinc levels are decreased compared to normal tissue.”
Liquid biopsy (cancer screening)
“Whole blood. Monitoring of patients with metastatic breast, colorectal, or prostate cancer. Prognosis and prediction of progression-free survival and overall survival in patients with metastatic breast, colorectal, or prostate cancer.”
Omega-3 fatty acids
“Influence insulin sensitivity. Alter estrogen synthesis. Interestingly, the Selenium and Vitamin E Cancer Prevention Trial (SELECT) reported that higher plasma omega-3 fatty concentrations were associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer.”
Multivitamins
“Multivitamins appear to have no effect on total cancer incidence or several types of cancers including breast, colorectal, prostate, or skin (melanoma), although the risk of lung cancer was 38% *lower for participants taking a multivitamin.”
Senescence
“Navitoclax increased clearance of senescent chondrocytes in an in vitro model of osteoarthritis. Piperlongumine induced senescence and clearance of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer cells, reducing their ability to migrate and reproduce.”
Sulforaphane
“An example of sulforaphane's anticancer effects was seen in a study in which sulforaphane reduced biochemical recurrence in men who have had prostate cancer. The double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study involved 75 men (average age, 69 years) who had undergone radical prostatectomy and were experiencing increased PSA levels.”
Resveratrol
“Cancer Whether resveratrol may be beneficial for the treatment of cancer in humans is not currently known; however, numerous in vivo rodent studies have shown the potential of resveratrol for the treatment of pancreatic, prostate, colorectal, liver and breast cancer.”
Vitamin D activates the gene GDF-15, which suppresses inflammation in the prostate and is very low in prostate cancer.
“FTA: > A new study offers compelling evidence that inflammation may be the link between vitamin D and prostate cancer. Specifically, the study shows that the gene GDF-15, known to be upregulated by vitamin D, is notably absent in samples of human prostate cancer driven by inflammation.”
