PROSTATE SPECIFIC ANTIGEN OR PSA is a protein produced by a Prostate Gland. Its purpose is to keep semen fluid to allow spermatozoids swim freely on their rushed way to a uterus. PSA stays within men's reproductive system, still, it is possible for tiny amounts to reach the blood stream. However, something is wrong if a blood test reveals that PSA is abnormally high.
Emerging research jolted scientists when they discovered that their century-long criteria was wrong when telling men that as they get old the risk to Prostate Cancer is inevitable. Latest research contradicts their wrongful assumption and shows that ~as decades go by~ tiny amounts of Estrogen reach the Prostate Gland and accumulates in it becoming un-metabolized. What follows are highly undesirable conditions: A.- Un-metabolized Estrogen augments production of PSA increasing the risk of Prostate Cancer. B.- Un-metabolized Estrogen snatches Free Testosterone and makes it Captive Testosterone. The good news is that those same scientists learned that un-metabolized Estrogen is inhibited by 'Diindolylmethane' or DIM which derives out of 'Indole 3-Carbinol' or I3C.
Cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, collards, mustard greens, brussel sprouts, radish, watercress, kale,
and turnips are Cruciferous that provide healthful quantities of I3C. Once I3C is digested with food
in our stomach, it becomes DIM; and the magic for us guys starts!
In fewer and simpler words, scientists tell us is that DIM derails Estrogen and arm-twists it to metabolize. Once metabolized, two utterly good things follow: PSA levels drop ~and the chance to develop Prostate Cancer also drops significantly~ and Captive Testosterone is released becoming Free Testosterone doing its miraculous job throughout a man's body. Another team of scientists from the American Optometric Association found that I3C wipes out toxins from the retina reducing age-related Macular Degeneration, and yet another team of scientists concluded that I3C likely prevents Colorectal Cancer.
Clearly, men have two ways to go: 1.- To feed their prostates and every organ in their bodies consuming cruciferous at any age. 2.- Once in their early 40s ~and beyond~ men should consider a dose of DIM two to three times a week gradually increasing the dose as they grow older as long as their doctor approves.
"Both ways are barn-doors to a healthy prostate and significantly reduced
risk of prostate cancer" scientists state at the end of their white paper.
