Each year, more than 230,000 men are diagnosed with prostate cancer, and 30 to 40 percent of patients who are diagnosed will eventually relapse. But the good news is that more men are being cured of this disease than ever before.
Now in a revised third edition, this lifesaving guide by Dr. Patrick Walsh and award-winning science writer Janet Farrar Worthington offers a message of hope to every man facing this illness. Prostate cancer is a different disease in every man, which means that the right treatment varies for each man. Listeners will discover their risk factors, simple changes that can reduce the risk of developing the disease, treatment options, and more.
This new edition is updated to maintain it's cutting edge as the world's most popular and well-respected resource on prostate cancer.

Early in her career, Kelly Turner, PhD, a researcher, lecturer, and counselor in Integrative Oncology, was shocked to discover that no one was studying episodes of radical remission, when people recover against all odds without the help of conventional medicine, or after conventional medicine has failed. She was so fascinated by this kind of remission that she spent eight years travelling through 10 countries to learn what factors that people experiencing this phenomenon encountered.

Since the beginning of the 20th century, cancer rates have increased exponentially - now affecting almost 50 percent of the American population. Conventional treatment continues to rely on chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation to attack cancer cells. Yet research has repeatedly shown that 95 percent of cancer cases are directly linked to diet and lifestyle. The Metabolic Approach to Cancer is the audiobook we have been waiting for - it offers an innovative, metabolic-focused nutrition protocol that actually works.

Going against the conventional wisdom reinforced by the medical establishment and Big Pharma that more screening is the best preventative medicine, Dr. Gilbert Welch builds a compelling counterargument that what we need are fewer, not more, diagnoses. Documenting the excesses of American medical practice that labels far too many of us as sick, Welch examines the social, ethical, and economic ramifications of a health-care system that unnecessarily diagnoses and treats patients.

Whether in lake, lido, river or sea, we know the benefits of swimming outdoors and in nature—environmentally friendly and accessible, it can influence our happiness, our energy and our inner tranquillity. Winter Swimming takes this one step further, as contact with cold water all year round can also have a significant positive impact on our physical health, confidence and well-being. Danish scientist Susanna Søberg leads us step by step into the icy water and explains the 'cold-shock response', the massive endorphin rush as our body reacts and adapts.

Story
More than 90 percent of sexually active women have only been given a very limited amount of information about how birth control works, often right at the beginning when they start their first pill or patch. Not all of us enjoy biology lessons, and figuring out the complexities of hormones, cycles, and our bodies can feel a little too much. But it doesn’t need to be rocket science. Getting a better insight into how your body really works can empower you and open up choices and possibilities so that you make the best decisions for yourself. After all, this is your body!

Comprehensive dive into prostate cancer treatment.
I have been diagnosed with gleason 4+3=7 prostate cancer. No one wants to hear that news. After an office visit with a urologist I began searching the internet. I was able to find bits and pieces of information. Then I thought I would see what was available in books. I found this book along with many good reviews. This is where I should have started. Dr Walsh covers prostate cancer pretty thoroughly. Most of my questions were answered in this book. I recommend this book.

The scariest book I've ever read (listen)
This is the scariest book I've ever read and the most informative book I've ever read. I also bought the hard cover book and followed along with the audible version. I wrote notes throughout the book. highlighted many paragraphs. This book helped to decide what procedure I'm going to choose. They explain all the available options. They are a bit biased one procedure I believe. The book is very deep but easy to follow for the most part. I wish everyone the best of luck and well wishes for everyone going through this. You will get better.

Fantastic!!
I’ve been the medical field for 40 years. I read this book after my biopsy. 7.2 PSA and 6-6-7 Gleason. This book gives you clear and concise information to help you make an intelligent decision. It crushes your fear of getting your PSA numbers. Prostate cancer is a #2 killer of men because of fear and embarrassment. By the time you’re symptomatic it could be too late. Do yourself a favor and read this.

Facing Prostate Cancer? Start here
My Urologist recommended this book after sharing that my biopsy showed I had type II prostate cancer. This book will answer all your questions about the nature of prostate cancer, the different types, treatment options pros and cons, male anatomy, medications, caregiver support, pre and postoperative preparation and much more. After reading this book and talking with my doctor I have been able to make a educated decisions on my preferred treatment plan. Highly recommend this to new members of the reluctant brotherhood.

comprehensive view of prostate cancer
this book offers a very good overview of issues related to prostate cancer. since Dr Walsh is a surgeon he focuses more on surgical treatments than on radiology and ADT treatments. but it is still very worthwhile to listen to the many aspects of cancer addressed in this book

This book allowed me to have cogent dialog with urologist I've met with for 2nd opinions.
Listening to Surviving Prostate Cancer on Audible was like spending 20 hours with Dr. Walsh telling you all you need to know about causes, therapies and cures for prostate cancer.
