Was just informed that a friend has Prostate Cancer. He is in his mid 70’s.
Just did a quick check of conventional treatments that his doctor might recommend, there is nothing there that looks like it be would a whole bunch of fun or effective.
I don’t know if he is open to alternative treatment, but I was wondering what the experts here would recommend.

Mad. my husband has/had prostate cancer with secondaries in his spine and pelvic bones - that was three and half years ago. He is having anti-androgen injections from the medics.
He is also doing a great deal of "alternative" therapy.

Budwig protocol, as far as it fits into
The Blood Type Diet by D'Adamo
A Chinese herbal medicine for prostate cancer.
Graviola
Essiac
Lycopene
Pumpkin oil
Apricot seeds

Our diet is entirely local, organic food. Absolutely nothing processed or ready made. Raw milk.

D tried IP6 but it caused abdominal bloating and nausea.
He is completely symptom free since about 2 months after diagnosis
(apart from a recent injury related to renovations)

I hope your friend will be willing to make the effort to help himself - many do not, and I am not sure that it alters the outcome in the end. I treat an elderly man with the same problem as my husband. This man has pain from spinal metastases. He would not consider the regime my husband follows - having acupuncture treatment is "far out" for him!!
He is 5 years down the road since diagnosis and enjoys a full life, only mildy restricted when he is walking.
I can't claim to know the answer, but I do claim to make the effort!
