This is the third instance I've read of someone with prostate disease
using habaneros.  But a search of medline and google scholar showed no
papers published that show burning your lips off can cure prostate
cancer.

WASHINGTON, March 15 (Reuters) - 16 Mar 2006 00:33:22 GMT - Capsaicin, which
makes peppers hot, can cause prostate cancer cells to kill themselves, U.S.
and Japanese researchers said on Wednesday. Capsaicin led 80 percent of
human prostate cancer cells growing in mice to commit suicide in a process
known as apoptosis, the researchers said. Prostate cancer tumors in mice fed
capsaicin were about one-fifth the size of tumors in untreated mice, they
reported in the journal Cancer Research.

"Capsaicin had a profound anti-proliferative effect on human prostate cancer
cells in culture," said Dr. Soren Lehmann of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center
and the University of California Los Angeles School of Medicine. "It also
dramatically slowed the development of prostate tumors formed by those human
cell lines grown in mouse models."

While it is far easier to cure cancer in mice infected with human tumors
than it is in human beings, the findings suggest a possible future
treatment. They also may offer a good excuse for men who like spicy food to
eat more of it. Lehmann estimated that the mice ate the human equivalent of
400 milligrams of capsaicin three times a week. That is about the amount
found in three to eight fresh habanero peppers, depending on how hot the
peppers are.

The capsaicin inhibited the activity of NF-kappa beta, a molecular mechanism
that helps lead to apoptosis in many cell types. Prostate cancer is the most
common malignant cancer in U.S. men. It is diagnosed in 232,000 men every
year and kills up to 30,000 of them. Worldwide, 221,000 men die every year
from prostate cancer.

Depends on where your lips are.

Don Imus is having his case overseen by two of the top urologists in
the US, according to Don's own words in the audio. One is at Columbia
University and the other is at UCLA. They are the ones who have
conducted the tests such as the c-reacive protein and SED rates which
are now zero, and the PSA-3 urinalysis which is moving dramatically in
the right direction,  down from 200 to now 59.

In other words, the physicians are observing and charting his cure -
my cure - instead of causing his demise.

he has been, and continues to to receive, treatment(s) per his doctor(s)
advice.

I am the author of a book. My recipe was developed by me based in part
from what I learned while conducting research for the book. My recipe
is free. I don't even collect email addresses in return for the
recipe.

IOW, while my book is doing quite well more than a decade after its
original publication, and I don't apologize for its continued success,
the recipe stands on its own.

Wow, that is a new approach - you think I'm selling a book I didn't
write. ROFL!

One never knows who is sitting at the computer on the oother end, Rod.
But we've just gotten a better picture of whom you are.

Wow, Rod.  Where did he try to sell his book on this groups?

I must have missed that.  Neither did I believe he is a scum bag.

Don's on the ten year plan IMO. He really doesn't have much choice
considering his health and age. Upon hearing him break the news, I
mused that his best shot would be PBRT which surprisingly he mentioned
after weeks of consultation with a battery of physicians that a guy
with his money has access to.

His major concern is a "weener warranty" as he refers to his ability
to keep his erection ability after treatment. Radiation doesn't sit
well with him and his wife's the one that is taking him down this road
that he is traveling. For his sake I hope he pulls a rabbit out of his
sac.

Honestly, I think he is in such lousy health besides the addition of
this new issue, that IMO he has nothing to lose with the hokus pokus
he's trying. It beats watchful dying in his case.

That's the beauty of my recipe. One does not need to know the first
thing about prostate cancer for the recipe to do its job...as it is
doing so beautifully for Imus...as it has already done for Chuck
Kinsey.

It is not "very agressive to you stomach".  There's no
inflammation, even though it might feel as though there
must be.  The capsaicin in hot peppers activates the
pain receptors, but that's all it does.  It might feel
like it's burning a hole in your stomach, but nothing
like that is happening.

And chili peppers certainly don't cause stomach cancer.

If one were to eat really hot peppers every day for long periods of
time, it certainly will make them less active or even inactive towards
fighting cancer. That's why I don't endorse following my recipe for
more than a couple weeks if one doesn't have cancer.

The habanero is hot enough for me, but there are others much hotter.  Check

Don Imus needs to be told about HIFU, no doctor will tell you about it,
because it isn't approved here yet, it is in clinical trials.

My husband had HIFU in Mexico by an American urologist from South Carolina,
treatment took 2 hours, cost was $25,000.  This treatment, High Intensified
Focused Ultrasound, called "HIFU", is in use in virtually every other
developed country on earth, except the USA. HIFU was invented in the USA some
66 years ago in Indiana. For 18 years the Europeans have been treating
prostate cancer using HIFU with a 94% success rate. HIFU is easy and pain
free with only a 1% chance of urinary incontinence, and zero chance of bowel
incontinence. If HIFU was available I believe all men would opt for this
treatment.

My husband had no negative side effects at all, no pain, no discomfort, no
incontinence, no erectile dysfunction. His PSA is 0.4 now, excellent, as he
still has a gland, just no tissue in it. PSA should go down in a couple more
months.  

My husband would not have undergone surgery or radiation because of the high
rate of urinary and bowel incontinence associated with them. Many other men
feel this way as well, so they do nothing and die.

There are two HIFU machines, the Albatherm, made in France, it requires a
TURP, which can cause scarring and incontinence, it is robotic.  And the
Sonablate, made in Indiana, USA.  No TURP needed, it is manually operated.
The doctor uses a computer and sees the process through a real time 3-D
computer image.   If cancer is outside the gland, the doctor can zap it using
the Sonablate HIFU, he also sees the nerves and so he can avoid them.  

Radiation costs start at $60,000., and yet HIFU and radiation both do the
same thing: they destroy the tissue being treated. However, because of the
side effects from radiation the doctor is only able to give short sessions,
treatment is given in daily sessions and is completed in months. While HIFU
causes no surrounding tissue damage, as it is non-ionizing, which means
treatment can last fup to 4 hours, until all the cancerous tissue is ablated
in one session.

Radiation was approved in the USA without undergoing FDA trails. Our local
urologist warned us against radiation as it can cause other cancers later in
life.

There are ongoing FDA clinical trails on HIFU all over the country, they are
in the 3rd year.

The FDA’s Board of Directors is comprised of only surgeons and radiologists.
The rules for being admitted into the HIFU trials are very unnecessarily
stringent. Because of this, if HIFU gets approved, HIFU will only reach a
small minority of men with prostate cancer. I feel these trials are a sham.
We have a friend who is on the Board of Directors for a well respected
hospital in NY, he just had robotic surgery for prostate cancer. When I told
him about HIFU he was angry, and exclaimed , "why haven't I ever heard about
this??!!" He went on to tell us that the AMA runs insurance companies, so we
will never see costs come down. He also told us that chemo pills are safer,
just as effective and with less side effects, as chemo drip, but “the pills
costs pennies on the dollar compared to drip”, and so chemo pills are not
prescribed, and insurance will not cover them.

The UK has had such success with prostate cancer using HIFU that now they are
running trials on liver and kidney cancer using HIFU. Making HIFU available
in the USA would greatly reduce prostate cancer costs, insurance fees, and
increase men's quality of life. 250 American urologists have already learned
the art of HIFU, but they have to leave the country to practice it.    

Call 888-874-4384 to find a trail in your area or book with Dr. S. Scionti in
Nassau or Puerto Vallarta, it's worth every penny, I don't know if I coulda
lived with a guy in diapers.
