We care about our dads, uncles, grandpas – and all of the men in our lives. So why not understand the basics underlying the 2nd largest cancer killer in America and the UK among men (and 6th worldwide)? We'll strip down the process of cell regulation, cancer, and what is known about prostate cancer.

Se Dnem Otců, který nám připomíná, jak moc se staráme o naše tatínky, jsme se rozhodli podívat na téma týkající se mužů. Rakovina prostaty je druhá nejčastější smrtelná rakovina u mužů a to jak v USA, tak ve Velké Británii. Prostata je součástí mužského pohlavního ústrojí a je zodpovědná za tvorbu semenné kapaliny která, jak se ukazuje, je částečně zodpovědná za… uhodli jste. Vaše zrození a stejně tak všech ostatních ale s časem a věkem se buňky prostaty, jako jakékoliv jiné, mohou stávat defektními, což vede k rakovině. Naše tělo a vše v něm, včetně prostaty, se skládá z buněk normální chování buněk v průběhu životního cyklu je růst a dělit se mitózou ale místo aby nekontrolovatelně množily, jsou zde nesčíselná opatření, která mají zajistit, že buňky jsou zdravé, normálně funkční a dělí se v kontrolovaném množství. Například buňky nejen dostávají růstové signály, ale dostávají také protirůstové signály, které jim říkají, že mají přestat růst. Navíc zdravé buňky mají pouze omezenou možnost dělení, což znamená že čím více se dělí tím menší šanci mají, že se budou znovu dělit. Nakonec se obecně umístí v nějakém místě v těle a potřebují angiogenezi (vytvoření kapilár) či vytvoření cév, aby se udržely naživu a získávaly živiny. Posuňte takovou buňku dále od cévy a nedokáže přežít. Jakákoliv buňka, která se neřídí těmito pravidly a která je stará a opotřebovaná, je odstraněna procesem zvaným apoptóza. Apoptóza je kontrolované zničení buňky tělem (tzn. programovaná smrt). Ale sem a tam se může objevit mutace či chyba, která změní vlastnosti buňky. Například, může se stát, že v nějaké generaci začne ignorovat signály blokující růst. Později jedna další buňka v dalších generacích může opět zmutovat a být schopná se tak vyhnout apoptóze. Tato mutace je náhodná a může nastat s určitou pravděpodobností, ale kombinace trochu toho a toho, nakonec, vede k rychle rostoucí, nekontrolovaně se dělící, nesmrtelné mase buněk. Také známé jako rakovina. Což vysvětluje, proč je pravděpodobnější dostat rakovinu prostaty v pozdějším věku, protože vaše buňky měly mnoho šancí posbírat vícero mutací skrz mnoho generací. Toto je jeden z důvodů, proč 80% mužů dostane rakovinu prostaty do 80 let. Takže je tu něco, co s tím můžeme dělat? Něco ano. Když se podíváme na Asii, zjistíme, že má nejmenší výskyt rakoviny prostaty na Zemi. Takže si myslíme, že je genetická, a mnoho studií to podporuje. Ale asijští muži, kteří se přestěhovali do USA vykazují větší výskyt rakoviny prostaty než ti v Asii a to úměrně času, který strávili v USA. Navíc, děti asiatů narozené v USA vykazuje prakticky stejný výskyt rakoviny prostaty jako děti europoidní rasy narozené v USA. Toto jasně ukazuje, že některé z faktorů musí odpovídat stravě a životnímu stylu. Některé studie ukazují, že potraviny jako sója, rajčata a ryby mohou být částečně zodpovědné za nižší výskyt této choroby ačkoliv o tom stále probíhá diskuze. Tato jídla, stejně jako některé chemikálie a léky mají všechny vlastnosti, které mohou pomáhat normální regulaci buněk nebo zabránit poškození buněk a mutaci. Na druhou stranu, tučná jídla byla označena jako potenciální viník mnoha rakovin. Nakonec, ačkoliv je tu stále nejistota kolem rakoviny prostaty a i toho jak jí zabránit a léčit ji – vzdělání a pochopení jsou velice hodnotné. Takže místo toho dát svému tatínkovi pohled na Den Otců vezmi rajče do jedné ruky, nějakou sóju do druhé a dejte mu ten největší dárek: vědomosti. Protože čím více lidí bude žít zdravě a aktivně tím lépe nám bude a čím více budeme myslet jak naše vědomá rozhodnutí ovlivní naše životy dnes i v budoucnu tím vyšší bude kvalita našeho života. Šťastný a veselý Den Otců!

  1. U know what they say if u dont use it u lose it so use your dende or u lose it

  2. Agates want any excuse get fudgyfingers

  3. It’s important to note that the main reason they’re dying is because of the treatments, not because of the cancer!

  4. it’s probably to do with the lifestyle of eating out at restaurants and the poor and unhealthy cooking methods restaurants use… you eat whole foods and minimally process your food before you eat it… i imagine this will help massively… with meat don’t overcook… don’t grill or fry etx

  5. Within the first few seconds, the US and the UK…..hmmm, the 2 fattest, unhealthiest countries, big pharma's cash cows.

  6. GEEZ

    This video was doing so well until he drew the cancer dots at 3:31 lol

  7. Disregard the soy bullshit guys. Eat (or drink) soy and watch how it destroys your body. You have been warned 🤷🏻‍♂️

  8. Since you're teaching you should know it's not random and doesn't happen by chance. There are very particular reasons it happens and it doesn't start with mutations. It starts with chronic low grade inflammation and hypoxia. Give Dad the power to take control of his health and don't just tell him it's a random thing out of his control. Tell him to make healthy diet and lifestyle changes to take control. Changes such as exercise, add olive oil to his daily diet, reduce his sugar and carb intake, ect. Maybe have him listen to a podcast with Dr. Seyfried, or Dr. Rhonda Patrick etc. instead of repeating the somatic mutation theory from wikipedia or your insurance company sponsored incorrect med school text books. Thanks

  9. Pumpkin seeds, stinging nettle root, prostate massage.. Also of benefit to healthy prostate 😀

  10. Something that drives my point home further is what you said in the video where men from Asia and more eastern countries have lesser rates of prostate cancer. Keep in mind that those countries are heavily religious and forbid masturbation and sexual immorality while if you live in the U.S., these rates are up. This is because their diets involve good saturated fat, healthy carbs, and high quality meats. Their lifestyles also involve abstinence. Yet they have the lowest risk of prostate cancer.

  11. Remember, masturbation does not reduce prostate cancer. In fact, it will lead to it.

    Edited:
    Saying that spilling your seed will reduce prostate cancer is like saying using birth control lowers your risk of ovarian cancer. Both are false statements and doing both of these things will actually harm these glands.

  12. Yeah but Soy, Tomatos and Fish sucks and burgers and fries are awesome!

  13. What you eat.
    Your diet has so much to do with the cause of cancer.
    Keep away from processd foods that contains dairy.

    Dairy & certain meats are the worst caulperate causes.
    Eat raw chopped garlic. Fresh garlic & ginger is good for preventing prostate cancer!
    These herbs are fertility boosters!!!
    Lentil soup with chopped ginger & garlic with sweet potato is one of my favourits.

    People are usually quite ignorant about what they eat without actually thinking
    what bad health effects it can cause.
    Especially us men🤔

  14. Asap science, brought to you by pharmaceuticals! Wonder why theres a new pill out ever two months “helping with this or that”? Hmmmm

  15. Im here for the comments. No video. Stop eating highly processed bullsh*t APPROVED by the food drug bastar*s that reek havoc on our bodies. If anything says “not evaluated by fda and not to prevent cure or diagnose disease” you should probably take it. Its called reverse psychology. Do the opposite

  16. STOP SAYING FISH CONTAIN OMEGA 3'S. IT'S THE ALGEA THEY SWIM IN THAT CONTAIN OMEGA 3'S. THE ALGEA CONTAINS OMEGA 3'S AND NOT THE FISH.

  17. I can't believe anything anymore, I read that too much soy and tomatoes are not good for you, so who do you believe?

  18. Plant based diet.., Asia, less animal protein than Americans for sure., Soy is a bean. any bean is helpful in soo many ways.

  19. Hey that was amazing…..
    👏 great job….

  20. 2:43 – some studies hav shown foods like soy, tomatoes, n fish may decrease chances of prostate cancr but there's still debate.
    3:01 – fatty foods hav been potential culprits 2 many cancers.

  21. thanks for canceling NNN by 10 years ago

  22. While I appreciate you giving multiple sources to validate your research, all sources date from before 2000 (edit: two are from 2008) making them inaccurate compared to today. prostate cancer is less than 10% for people above 60, not 80% and practically non existant for people under 40

    I get that you try to make cancer seem inevitable, but inciting panic won't help

  23. Tomatoes are the fourth most commonly consumed fresh vegetable and the most frequently consumed canned vegetable in the American diet. There is emerging epidemiology data supporting the connection between increased tomato consumption and reduced risk for both cardiovascular disease and prostate cancer.

    Here we will summarize the nutrient and the phytochemical content of tomatoes and tomato products, and how these bioactive components might act together to modulate disease development.

    Recent animal studies have investigated tomatoes, lycopene, and prostate cancer using the N-methyl-N-nitrosourea and Dunning rat models.

    These animal studies also suggest that diets containing tomatoes may decrease the risk or the progression of prostate cancer. Due to the frequency and the extent of tomato consumption, the supporting epidemiological and animal data, which connect increased intakes with decreased cancer and cardiovascular disease risk, tomato's role in the American diet is of undeniable importance as part of a healthy diet.

  24. It's crazy how I just found out that my dad has cancer and it's almost fathers day

  25. CAN I DO KEGELS IN ERECT STATE?
    IT WILL AFFECT MY PROSTATE ?

  26. Why draw soda when mentioning fatty foods?

  27. My granddad had prostate cancer a few years ago, but thanks to regular trips to the doctor and screenings, it was caught early and he made a full recovery. So please make sure you regularly get checked if you are able to.

I have tried almost everything but I couldn’t find any solution for the virus, despite all these happening to me, I always spend a lot of money to buy HIV drugs and other supplements to keep me healthy and taking several medications. Until one day I was just surfing through YouTube when I came across a great post from Anita, who said that she was diagnosed with HIV and was healed through the help of this great herbal supplements of Dr Harvey, Sometimes I really wonder why people call him the great Dr.Harvey, I never knew it was all because of the great and perfect work that he has been doing. So I quickly contacted him and told him everything happening to me, and he asked me a few questions and he said something I will never forget, that anyone who contacts him is always getting his/her cure within a few weeks after doing all he asks them to do. So I was amazed all the time I heard that from him, so I did everything he said only to see that at the very day which he said I will be cured and should go for a test to confirm my status, I went to hospital for the final test and the doctor after running the test said I'm HIV negative wow. I'm very amazed and happy about this cure i have really gone through so much pain and tears for this Dr.Harvey cured me with the help of his natural herbs.If you have anybody going through this same situation or any kind of cancers or diseases at all contact Dr Harvey today he cures them all save a life today.You can contact Dr.Harvey EMAIl::[Drharveyphytotherapy@yahoo.com]

  31. In 2010, I went to a local hospital in Hagerstown, Maryland with stomach issues. I was later transferred to a large Hospital in Baltimore after developing jaundice. There, I learned that there was a tumor blocking my liver duct—the cause of the stomach distress—and that I had Stage 3 pancreatic cancer. I had no prior family history of the disease and was only 44-years-old at the time of diagnosis. I tried so many treatment but still no change, until a friend of mine told me about Dr Harvey, he told me how Dr Harvey cured his uncle with his Herbal Products and suggested I contact him ,so I quickly contacted him and explained everything to him and he assured me that his Herbal Products will cure me which I strongly believed ,so I Purchased it and he told me how to use it which I did , after some time I started noticing some changes in my body after 30 days I went for a test and to my greatest surprise the result was negative, Wow I’m so happy about this, thank you so much Dr Harvey. you can also contact Dr Harvey on VIA EMAIL: (Drharveyphytotherapy@yahoo.com)

I searched the internet and found out about Dr. Sani's herbal treatments.. asked a lot of questions.. watched the videos etc.. we tried to prepare some herbs ourselves but it couldn’t just work out we were doing more harm than good and the cancer was still there spreading, I searched more on the internet I found a testimony on how a lady got cured of cancer with Dr. Sani's herbs and roots. . wrote to this very email and in an hour later I got a reply back asking me some few questions, and enlightened me on how to get the herbal medicines in the next few days, I placed my order and in few days the herbal medication got to us.

  33. Prostate cancer is a sexist who only targets men.

  34. This is a warning to all prostate cancer sufferers. I was diagnosed with invasive prostate cancer in 2016. I was given 3 options for the cancer and the best treatment option was given to me. The options were removal, radiotherapy, or brachytherapy, which if chosen would set me back personally around USD 15,000. I decided on the third option as it was made out to be the discovery of the century. We sold off a lot of items to raise the money for the procedure. What a bad decision! I had the procedure, paid my money up front, and since then my life has been ruined by this treatment. First I had to use a catheter for 7 months, 4 times a day, then I went down for a cystoscopy, and contracted a dangerous bug in my bladder that went to my blood stream. The next day I went down, actually died, as my breathing stopped due to collapsed lungs. Lucky my son lives two streets from a hospital, as I was pronounced dead on arrival, as my lungs and heart had stopped from the effects of the bug. Since then I have been hospitalized, with a recurrence of the same bug. And I have just been diagnosed with a wrecked bladder and wrecked urethra, all due to this brachytherapy radiation. So people, be very careful if ever offered that option. They never warned me of the after effects, just the good things. I hope this helps someone, even one person from that awful treatment life was very dangerous and hard for me until i met an old friend of mine in the hospital who told me about DR HARVEY and how he cures different people with various diseases with his natural herbs and roots and i requested for his contact information and contacted him purchased the herbal medicine he gave me instructions on how to administer it and i believed him and followed his instructions after 2 weeks of consumption i went to the hospital the fourth week and carried out a test and behold I'm totally healed and cured I'm forever grateful to DR HARVEY you are a blessing to this world thanks for all you do sir..

  35. I'm Joseph Bove and was 54 years old when I had prostate cancer. Though my local doctor in Delaware thought I should have surgery, but I wanted to research other options first. I learned about the effectiveness of herbs using natural roots and herbs to cure cancer, which was available at Dr Harvey natural herbs and roots world,a place of Cancer Center. There, I underwent eight weeks of daily natural therapy by administering the herbal remedy and met other men who were going through the same treatment. It’s incredible the way we were able to bond over our illnesses; we still keep in touch, check in on each other, compare notes, and get updates,but at the end of it all we were cured and healed permanently by doctor Harvey after conducting series of test So I said. Dr Harvey herbal world was the best choice for me. My local hospital does not offer the type of treatment that I received, making me even more certain that I did the right thing by contacting Dr Harvey so most times is better we forget about chemo or radiation therapy and going natural with herbal medicine.with that we get free from cancer forever,All thanks to Him. Urge every cancer patient to contact doctor Harvey natural herbs and roots world.
