Congratulations and I'm glad G is better. After a bit of a scare concerning prostate cancer, my doctor told me this: Prostate cancer, by itself, is not fatal. He said that the latest he was hearing was no treatment unless it spread, because the risks can outweigh the benefits.
In April 2012, Alan Taylor, 78, was told by doctors he had incurable cancer and that his colon cancer had spread to the small intestines. In August of 2012 Alan Taylor received notification that he was cancer free. Amazingly Alan Taylor had beat the odds and with his simple and very inexpensive life changing diet, Alan was now cancer free.

No treatment, so sit back and wait till it spreads. You're right, the risks of cutting, burning and poisoning do outweigh the benefits, but how can an organic vegetable diet hurt?
Good comments. Just to add, though, PSA velocity (rise in PSA between tests) can be an indicator of rate of spread. A high score or a high velocity ought to trigger a biopsy. What I only found out afterwards is that sexual activity raises a PSA for a day or so...something to keep in mind...could generate a false positive.

I just want to add a few facts to this thread:
Prostate cancer is usually very slow moving and does not spread easily.
Tests for prostate cancer tend to show a lot of false positives.
I have mentioned a herbal concoction that is in clinical trials, called Zyflamend. Talk is it can be helpful in such matters, but I am not advising ditching her doctors!

Interesting thread. I did a research project on prostate cancer last year and have sat in on a few radical prostatectomy surgeries. I have also cared for a large amount of men with prostate cancer. I just want to add a few facts to this thread.

OP states not to trust doctors, they are out for money and are advising against natural therapies..... Radically changing a diet is not good for anyone, healthy or not. Added to this, many spices an fruits can have adverse effects against medication. If G is underweight or at risk of malnutrition (which I would suggest is highly likely given his age and disease) he will need some "meat" on his bones .. lots of calories.
It is not unusual to see people with prostate cancer not in a huge amount of pain or have terrible symptoms, most of my patients have mild back pain, no other symptoms.
Doctors dont get fat pay checks for stalling cancer. They get a LOT of paperwork, stress, and it costs the healthcare system a lot of money for surgeries. Prevention and early detection is far more cost effective and easier for doctors.
"Cutting, burning or posioning cancer never really kills it"...Let me show you a bunch of my patient success stories (including my own mother) which can prove otherwise.
Please be careful with the dandelion tea, which is a diuretic. Combined with cutting the salt from his diet, he may dehydrate, have hyponatremia or low BP..
....I could go on and on and on but its 1am here..
Other than skin cancer, prostate cancer is the most common cancer in American men. The American Cancer Society’s estimates for prostate cancer in the United States for 2013 are:
About 238,590 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed
About 29,720 men will die of prostate cancer
About 1 man in 6 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime.
Prostate cancer occurs mainly in older men. Nearly two thirds are diagnosed in men aged 65 or older, and it is rare before age 40. The average age at the time of diagnosis is about 67.
Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind only lung cancer. About 1 man in 36 will die of prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer can be a serious disease, but most men diagnosed with prostate cancer do not die from it. In fact, more than 2.5 million men in the United States who have been diagnosed with prostate cancer at some point are still alive today.

Whoa, I'm WAY LATE to the party, but I have a question for the OP. Sorry if it's been already addressed, but I'd like to know how avoiding acidic foods includes citrus. Citrus is very acidic, isn't it?
Maybe I'm not understanding "acidic" the way the OP means it.

Sorry all for not posting his results yet. The hospital mailed his results to his address about 2 hours from us because he has been staying with my wife and I will he tried this diet plan, so we're traveling up there to get them on Tuesday. He also has another appointment on Thursday with his regular doctor. He still feels great, no pain. He continues his diet but has added whole grains, turkey and chicken to it. Thanks again for the well-wishes.
