Is diet making your prostate cancer better—or worse? With countless influencers pushing plant-based diets, keto carnivores, and everything in between, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure about what to eat.
In this essential solo episode, Dr. Geo dives deep into the real science and practical insights from over 30 years of experience in nutritional research, clinical practice, and personal experimentation.
Whether you're newly diagnosed, in treatment, or working on prevention, this episode will help you feel clearer, more confident, and empowered about your food choices. You’ll learn what the research really says, why one-size-fits-all diets don’t work, and how to eat in a way that supports longevity, muscle retention, and a healthier microbiome—without guilt or confusion.
KEY POINTS FROM THE EPISODE
• There's no one-size-fits-all diet for prostate cancer.Every person’s condition, goals, and needs are different. Be cautious of diet “gurus” and extreme positions.
• No one food causes or cures cancer.Forget the hype around “superfoods” or villainizing a single food group—context, quality, and quantity matter most.
• Most people simply eat too much.Overeating—not any one nutrient—is a major contributor to health issues. Practice mindful eating and avoid nighttime pantry raids.
• Time-restricted eating can help.Consider 12:12 or 16:8 intermittent fasting based on your protein needs and lifestyle. It’s about balance, not punishment.
• Protein quality -quantity.About ½ gram per pound of body weight is enough for most men—especially those 60+ or on androgen deprivation therapy. Salmon is one of the best options.
• Not all meats are created equal.Processed meats (like cold cuts and hot dogs) and high-heat cooking methods are problematic—not grass-fed meats or lean cuts eaten in moderation.
• Complex carbs are NOT the enemy.Whole grains, legumes, and vegetables feed your microbiome and offer critical phytonutrients. Just watch for arsenic in certain brown rice.
• Fats should come from whole, natural sources.Omega-3s (like from fish oil), olive oil, avocado, and even some saturated fats can be part of a healthy plan. Avoid trans fats from fried and overly processed foods.
• Build in an “Eff-It Day.”Sustainability is key. Enjoy 1 day a week (or 3 meals weekly) guilt-free—no need for perfection. You can live and eat well at the same time.
