Written by a leading authority on hormone receptors and prostate cancer, this book reveals the surprising truth about how you can prevent and treat breast cancer, prostate cancer, and Alzheimer's with testosterone and other FDA-approved drugs.For decades, doctors have sought to combat prostate cancer under the mistaken assumption that testosterone fueled its growth. But the latest research into the nature of hormone receptors and therapies using bioidentical instead of synthetic hormones have caused a shift in thinking and new hope for treating this cancer with testosterone.Similar breakthroughs for fighting Alzheimer's and breast cancer follow close on the heels of these revelations. For the first time, this book explains how testosterone can halt the disease and cure early-stage Alzheimer's. In the case of breast cancer, the author outlines how the avoidance of synthetic progestins and the use of aromatase inhibitors are crucial tools in prevention and treatment.At the core of this book is the remarkable observation that we experience our highest hormone levels during our teen years--a time of life when there is no breast cancer, prostate cancer, or Alzheimer's. This thoroughly researched guide to the latest biomedical research is must-reading for medical professionals and anyone concerned about their health.
