Synopsis

In his latest book, Frank Murray delves into the prostate and its potential for problems. Although prostate cancer is the third most common cancer, there is an admitted lack of clinical data available on the topic. However, Murray has managed to unearth valuable research material on every conceivable aspect of the prostate. This venerable author has once again accomplished what he does so well: meticulously researching and stringing together clinical studies that give scientific underpinning to the methods and treatments he espouses and putting them into a cogent, easily accessible narrative. HOW TO PREVENT PROSTATE PROBLEMS defines exactly what the prostate is and how it is vulnerable to such diseases as benign prostatic hyperplasia, cancer and prostatitis. Murray then gives tips on how to prevent problems, or, if that's not an option, correctly diagnose and discuss what treatments are available. Both patient and doctor need to thoroughly understand the choices for treating these maladies. To illustrate some of the methods available, Murray has included case histories of men whose various prostate conditions have been successfully treated in different ways. Vitamins, minerals, herbs and other supplements that help to counter prostate irregularities are each given a comprehensive section, as are environmental hazards. The spectre of vasectomies possibly causing prostate cancer is also discussed. The back of the book contains an excellent glossary of terms, a list of helpful resources and an index.
