If not the PSA, what then?
Doug Kaufmann:
Without using the PSA test, what would you recommend men do to protect against prostate cancer?
Dr. Richard Ablin:
First off, having a PSA test is a personal choice made between a doctor and his male patient. Everything a man needs to know about this subject is in my book, written in a way the average man can understand. I would recommend that only men with a strong family history of prostate cancer who are very worried about the disease contemplate having a PSA test. They must be fully aware of the inherent risks involved in that decision. But there are growing data that suggest certain lifestyle and dietary steps may have a contributory preventive effect against prostate cancer. However, all men need to realize what may work for one man, may not work for another, i.e., “one size does not fit all”. I would encourage all men to be aware of their bodies and their health.
WATCH FOR MY SUMMARY TOMORROW!

It includes a chemotherapy nurses notes, the confessions of a chemotherapy drug salesman and a physicians account of what he would do if he were diagnosed with cancer.
