Elevated levels of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) contribute to benign prostate enlargement andprostate cancer. Two large studies found that the DHT-lowering drugs Avodart^® and Proscar^® sharply reduce prostate cancer risk along with symptoms of BPH (benign prostate hyperplasia). Yet some doctors are concerned about these drugs causing high-grade prostate cancer in a minority of study subjects. Find out why some doctors misinterpreted the results of these studies and how these drugs may cut the risk of even high-grade prostate cancer.

Every year, over 30,000 people die from the flu. Even more alarming is the fact that most individuals over 64 are not protected against the most virulent forms of the flu even though they receive an annual vaccine shot.

This article will empower men to utilize these advanced diagnostics to work with their physician to achieve the best clinical outcomes and avoid unnecessary procedures.

Prostate cancer is curable when detected at early stages. Proven methods exist to slash one’s risk of developing this common malignancy. Yet conventional medicine is advising men to avoid PSA screening and avoid drugs that not only reduce prostate cancer incidence, but also relieve urinary miseries. Read Life Extension’s scathing rebuttal to these flawed positions suggesting that men do nothing to guard against this epidemic killer.
