You Can Fight Prostate Cancer Without Losing What Makes You a Man With Dr. Stephen Petteruti

Roughly 1 in 8 men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Most will get a high PSA, go to a urologist, get a biopsy, and end up in surgery or radiation. A 15-year government-funded study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found that none of it changed the death rate. Bringing that research to the table is Dr. Stephen Petteruti, a men's health physician with over 30 years in practice. He thinks there is a better way to handle prostate cancer that can keep men out of the operating room and their vitality intact. Prostate cancer is something almost every man will face a decision about. That is exactly why I wanted Dr. Petteruti on the show. We get into what the PSA test tells you and what your options are when the number comes back high. "There's nothing about us biologically that requires us to decay and wither before we die." ~ Dr. Stephen Petteruti Support the show and get 50% off MCT oil with free shipping—just leave us a review on iTunes and Spotify and let us know! https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/live-beyond-the-norms/id1714886566 Resources Mentioned  Fight Cancer Like a Man by Dr. Stephen Petteruti: https://www.amazon.com/Fight-Cancer-Like-Man-Breakthrough/dp/B0GP6JHQTQ  The ProtecT Trial, New England Journal of Medicine 2023: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2214122  The PIVOT Trial, New England Journal of Medicine: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32089359/  Intellectual Medicine: https://www.intellectualmedicine.com  About Dr. Stephen Petteruti Dr. Stephen Petteruti is a board-certified family physician with over 30 years of experience specializing in men's health, hormone optimization, and prostate care.
