Guest guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Via Dr. website: Don't buy the hype in latest drug study The prostate ghouls just won't stop. Even as everyone wakes up and smells the robbery, finally realizing that this disease is one of the biggest scams in all of medicine, Big Pharma is STILL out to make a quick buck off your worst cancer nightmares. The latest: a push to get more men on a dangerous prostate med, Avodart, by claiming it can reduce cancers by 23 percent. But that's a half-truth more dangerous than the worst lie -- because this med will actually CAUSE cancer! The study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that the drug appears to lower the risk of only the slow-growing, low-grade cancers you simply don't need to worry about anyway -- the ones even mainstream docs now agree we're badly over-treating. But it also does something else... a side effect so heinous it's hard to imagine anyone with a clear conscience selling this as a prostate med: The study found that this drug increases the risk of developing the more unusual highly aggressive cancers. Oh, and did I mention that it boosts the risk of heart failure? Yet this failure of a med is somehow under consideration for its supposed prostate " benefit. " Dr. Otis Brawley, chief medical officer of the American Cancer Society, actually had the stones to say the increased heart failure risk could simply be a fluke. Funny... he won't call the supposed benefit a " fluke, " though. He's even suggesting men take it, and that their docs simply watch for heart failure. How exactly do you " watch " for that? Hook each man up to an EKG, 24-7? Or just call his home every morning -- anyone who doesn't answer the phone is another fluke. Like I've always said, the best way to treat most cases of prostate cancer is to ignore it. It may not go away -- but it won't hurt you, either. > > From: virtuosa150@... > Date: Mon, 3 May 2010 18:51:26 +0000 > Subject: Re: Injections and water retension??? > > I've been on T cypionate since 2/19/10.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Excellent point. Furthermore, I don't think DHT is itself *the* " big baddy " . It does contribute to prostate growth; however, a few studies have shown DHT administered on its own (without testosterone) does not promote prostate cancer. It seems the aromatizing androgens like testosterone have more of a role in prostate cancer, but I'd rather take whatever precautions necessary via nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle than bother with blocking DHT. I believe DHT (among other hormones and factors) is crucial for healthy erectile function, and I think preventive use of DHT inhibitors carries far more cost than benefit. ~Xian > > > > > > > > > I've been on Test injections HCG, DHEA since march 2, 2010, My Dr. told me > > > that will cause me to retain water weight..
