Does it All Begin W/ Vitamin K in the Gut? Vitamin K ⇆ Gut Interactions Link in Intestinal Dysbiosis, Prostate Health and an Emerging Cause of Severe Pregnancy Complications?

Image
Is there a "bacterial link" between prostate issues and pregnancy complications? Are both promoted by a messed up microbiome? You know what a hypothesis is, right? Well, in that case the title of the scientific journal "Medical Hypothesis" should tell you that the two studies the "results" of which I am about to present in the following brief write-up are hypothetical. This means, it will require further research efforts to prove that vitamin K is the missing link in prostate health and to confirm that instestinal dysbioses (=messed up gut microbiome) are at the heart of the an ever-increasing number of pregnancy complications. As of now, both assumptions are based on scientific evidence, the "last" 100% convincing evidence, however, is still missing.

Will Even Normal Testosterone Levels Increase Your Cancer Risk? Recent Study Makes it Sound Like it - At First Sight!

Image
Don't fall for someone who overgeneralizes, misreports or -interprets study results to tell you that healthy mid-range testosterone levels were a major trigger of cancer development. I just got an email from my good friend Carl Lanore who hosts the Super Human Radio Show I am sure you have already seen in the sidebar of the SuppVersity. He pointed me towards the results of a recent study from the Copenhagen University Hospital saying "Adel have you seen this? I'm sure the media will be all over it." Since Carl is usually pretty good at identifying things that "news" make headlines, I would like to leapfrog the mass media craze before any of you consider cutting off their best parts to end up in the allegedly healthy depth of quasi zero testosterone. You have no clue what I am talking about? Well, I am about to elaborate. You just have to stay with me for the rest of a comparatively long, but insightful (I promise) analysis of the study and related ...

Curcumin, Genistein, Pomegranate & Co. - A Dirty Dozen of Supplements & Foods to Keep Your Prostate Cancer Free

Image
Which of the dirty dozen of supplements and foodstuffs in today's SuppVersity review can really help you to make sure, you're not the one out of those nine men who develops prostate cancer? Supplements that are supposed to protect you from developing prostate cancer and/or agents that may help patients with existing prostate issues are - obviously - in high demand. And as W. Merkle points out in a recent article in the German science journal Urologe using them - even if they may not be as effective as some patients may believe - makes sense: from a psychological perspective, alone (Merkle. 2014). Taking a pill with selenium, for example, has been shown to alleviate some of the side effects of chemotherapy. General protective effects against prostate cancer, on the other hand, have not been established. In fact, the most recent studies rather suggest that "supplementation did not benefit men with low selenium status but increased the risk of high-grade PCa among men ...

True or False: Dairy Is a Toxic ☣ Hormone Cocktail That's a Threat to Your Testosterone Levels & Fertility and Promotes Breast, Prostate & Other Forms of Cancer!

Image
Are the hormonal side effects of dairy and its cancerous consequences even worse than they're painted by the steadily growing anti-dairy lobby? I have to admit that I expanded Artur Vladimirovich's original question, whether I would believe that the results of a 2010 study by Maruyama K, Oshima T, Ohyama K. were a reason for concern to make it relevant for all of us - including the female SuppVersity readers. It goes without saying that we will thus have to go beyond the results of the said paper that was published in the February issue of Pediatrics international , the official journal of the Japan Pediatric Society (Maruyama. 2010) to be able to answer whether the statement "Dairy Is a Serious Threat to His Fertility and a Promoter of Her Cancer Risk!" from the headline is true, false or neither one or the other. "[E]strogens in milk were absorbed, and gonadotropin secretion was suppressed, followed by a decrease in testosterone secretion" (Maryama...
