T. Colin Campbell, PhD who has been at the forefront of nutrition research for over forty years is someone you can learn from. He wrote the book The China Study.
“The toll from prostate cancer is immense. In the U.S., one out of every ten men will be diagnosed with this devastating disease. “
In striking contrast are Chinese men who have the lowest advanced prostate cancer rates in the world, one in every 100,000. While we don’t know all the factors leading to this huge discrepancy, we do know that high levels of testosterone can be a triggering factor in prostate cancer. We also know that testosterone production is accelerated by a high animal-protein diet. (Edited in 2024: Don’t go completely vegan. I wrote this years back when I felt every over weight guy needed to chill off meat and dairy. Animal protein with vegetables are extremely beneficial. You guys need those testosterones. What the heck was I researching back then).
Whether you are a man or a woman, you may be surprised to know that you have a mix of male and female hormones. It’s the various proportions of testosterone and estrogen that not only account for differences between men and women but also can account for the difference between life and death.
Among the many advantages of a plant-based diet is the fact that vegetables contain phytoestrogens (plant estrogens) that help normalize the proportion of testosterone to estrogen in the body. Several studies have shown that men eating diets high in phytoestrogen-containing foods soybeans and peas, for example are less likely to develop cancer.
Even more convincing are two studies that tracked a total of more than 68,000 American men. Both studies found that those men who ate the most fat (thereby boosting their testosterone levels) had 79% more advanced prostate cancer than the men who kept to low-fat diets.Which fatty foods were the worst? Red meat, mayo, and butter. (Edited in 2024: Boosting Testosterone is what you need to be doing, just add alkaline foods to not make your body not inflame. Simply balance)
When the downside of an animal foods diet is compared with the full spectrum of advantages of a plant-based diet (including the addition of antioxidants, vitamins, and other helpful nutrients), the difference in prostate cancer rates between Chinese and American men is not so surprising.”
The facts from Campbells’s studies, are supported by medical doctors globally and they are taking the stand and sharing detailed facts on the dangers of animal proteins.
This is available online for free. And if you see blogs or articles debunking such facts, I wouldn’t be surprised if it came from the meat industry. (Edited in 2024: Sorry, I was totally brainwashed back then. There is truth with this blog, and I would say a many of my overweight friends can benefit from eating vegan, but plant-based eating forever will deplete men from their testosterone levels too much and compromise muscle growth. Each individual and their stress level truly plays a part on how to eat. I should have prefaced all my research that going extreme may hurt you too, like not having thick enough blood to hold a good erection!)
Google Protein Myth!
Also billions of dollars is generated from ED medications as well as other prescriptions related to some sort of reproductive and testosterone issues, so why wouldn’t the healthcare system tell you the truth? Animal agriculture and big pharma work together! (Edited in 2024, I do still feel most medicines, especially hormone therapy messes our ability to ever create our own. This effects performance and other side effects like sexual dysfunction. Synthetic hormones will not offer core virility. it just looks good on lab work. That doesn’t mean much if your Penis is broke.)
Medication after medication is a common pattern I have seen! Over-prescribing hypertension meds (for example) traps one to eventually get on ED meds. Many medications do because it contaminates the blood and it’s flow!
Hmmmmm. Are you guys connecting the dots yet? And when one does get on ED meds, they eventually need prostate medication because of the hardening from the toxic metals causing an enlarge prostate. Prescribing meds have become a normal routine for these doctors. It just keeps on going until you’re totally cornered, hopeless and stuck!
Well I am here to get you redirected as well as endless info on the web! I know rebuilding a new belief system with a plant-based diet seems unnatural. (Edited on 2024: Duh) And that’s how we have been programmed to think! We have lived hundreds of years doing what we have been doing, and guess what people, IT’S NOT WORKING! Even the Paleo diet has been thoroughly researched and they found that primal eaters were actually frugivor/herbivore! Yup we have all been sheeples! Google Paleo Poop.
A plant-based path is a new way of vibrant eating. It will take some planning. Within weeks it will become second nature! A plant-based diet is the true solution to bringing back prostate wellness! In the beginning you will no longer have those stimulants from animal hormones so you may feel weak and fatigued for a few days up to a few weeks. Edited in 2024: (Ugh, I was so stupid) Removing meat and dairy will be an opportunity to have your OWN body create and balance it’s own testosterone levels! NO more mystery blood work on what is going on in your body! Intuition will kick in and common sense there after 🙂
Depending how much your body has been depleted, everyone’s healing differs. If your are on medication (s), please do not just stop taking them. Educate yourself and have your doctor lower your doses as you meanwhile heal yourself through a plant-based diet! (Edited in 2024: On occasion to remove inflammation it’s fine to just eat fruits and veggies, but quickly incorporate meat and fish back within a day or so! Please stay away from plant-milks as they will for mess with your hormones. Go read at what kind of toxic oils are in them!)
I am not a doctor. I am a researcher and prostate nutrition specialist.
Thanks for reading again guys!

This blog above was written nearly 6 years ago. It showcases how I used to think back then and how I’ve grown today. I’ve chosen to keep this blog post available to keep my thoughts transparent from how far I have come as a holistic practitioner. Although my diet is high plant-based, I feel it’s crucial for everyone to bring that balance when needed. Thanks for reading.
