185: David Peters survived prostate cancer | rezum procedure | sacrum | colonics | cachexia | metformin

from Cancer Interviews · host Bruce Morton and Jim Foster

For David Peters, what began as medical attention to address an enlarged prostate in 2022 became a diagnosis of Stage 4B prostate cancer.  Prior to his undergoing a Rezum procedure, a pre-op workup a PSA level of 19.  However, nobody at the hospital bothered to check the PSA level before performing the procedure, which placed David at great risk.  Not long after that came his diagnosis.  David's care team recommended lifelong androgen deprivation therapy.  He checked out the side effects and didn't want to go that route.  David instead opted for a three-week to Hope4Cancer in Cancun, Mexico, where he underwent an intense holistic regimen.  In 2026, when the cancer spread to his bones, he went to the First Nations Clinic in Tennessee, where he is undergoing a nanotherapeutics protocol.  It is keeping the cancer at bay, and he enjoys a healthy lifestyle.   David said his cancer journey did not begin with cancer symptoms.  The combination of frequent urination and a weak stream led him to believe he had an enlarged prostate and went to a doctor.  He had many options, but chose a Rezum procedure, in which steam into the prostate through the rectal wall and it shrinks the prostate.  However, the care team wanted to first make sure David didn't have prostate cancer, so he was given a PSA test.  This was in May of 2022.  In August, the surgery was performed; but it wasn't until September that a nurse informed him that his PSA level was dangerously high at 19, meaning the surgery was performed when his risk for cancer was high, but the care team didn't know it!   Not long after that, David Peters was diagnosed with Stage 4B prostate cancer, which had spread to his sacrum, iliac chain and a node near his rib cage.  His oncologist discussed with Dave various treatment options, but urged him to immediately begin a regimen of androgen deprivation therapy, which would basically shut off his testosterone.  It did not David and his wife, Kathi, to agree this was not the way to go, and they opted to see remedies that were more holistic in nature.   After some research by David and Kathi, they decided to Hope4Cancer in Mexico, where he would undergo intensive testing and holistic work.  He really appreciated that Hope4Cancer treats body, soul and spirit with an eye toward wholeness.  He experimented with a raw vegan diet and with fasting.  David ended up being more diligent about the meats and vegetables he ate.   David continued his cancer journey in February 2026 at the First Nations Clinic in Tennessee, where he began a protocol of nanotherapeutics.  They disrupt the cancer cells, and for the first time in three years his PSA went down.  He goes to the clinic once a month.   David Peters is happy to report he weighs 150 pounds, like he did in high school.  He walks every day, exercises three times and does pushups every day.   Additional Resources:   David's Website: https://www.threewordsdoc.com
