You can’t control your age.
You can’t control your genetics.
But you can control what you eat — every single day.

In this episode, Dr. Chovanec, a medical oncologist, explains the practical nutrition strategy he discusses with patients concerned about prostate cancer risk and rising PSA levels.

This is not about fad diets or selling supplements.
It’s about the chemistry of food — and how what you eat can create an environment where cancer cells either thrive or struggle to survive.

Foods to LIMIT (the risk side):
• Why heavily charred meat isn’t just flavor — it’s chemistry
• How high dairy intake relates to IGF-1 and aggressive disease
• Why liquid sugar fuels inflammation and growth signals

Foods to PRIORITIZE (the protection side):
• How cruciferous vegetables support DNA repair
• Why green tea can shift your metabolic environment
• The tomato “trap” — and the one preparation method that actually matters

“Food will never replace medical care, but it does shape the environment of your body. You can start small — just swap one food this week.” — Dr. Chovanec

What you’ll learn in this episode:

We are told the PSA test is a simple lifesaver. But for 12 out of 13 men, it can lead to a "trap" of unnecessary biopsies, anxiety, and permanent side effects.

In this episode, Dr. Michal Chovanec reveals the hidden risks of prostate cancer screening that most doctors don't have time to explain. You will learn why a "high number" doesn't always mean cancer, and the exact protocol to follow to protect yourself from overtreatment.

Topics covered:

• The Trade-Off: Why saving 1 life often means harming 12 others.

• The "48-Hour Rule": How cycling or even sex can give you a false cancer scare.

• The New Standard: Why you should demand an MRI before a biopsy.

• Reading the Results: Understanding PSA Velocity (Speed) and Density.

Is your daily vitamin routine actually helping you, or are you just creating "expensive urine"? 🚽💊

In this episode, Dr. Chovanec breaks down the uncomfortable truth about the supplement industry. Many of us take pills in good faith, believing we are investing in our longevity, but without the right knowledge, we might be wasting money—or worse, risking our health.

We cover the 5 major flaws of supplementation:

• The Expensive Urine Effect: Why poor bioavailability means you're flushing your money away.

• The Isolation Fallacy: Why a pill can never replicate the synergy of real food.

• The "License to Eat Trash": How supplements psychologically trick us into poorer lifestyle choices.

• Hidden Contaminants: What else is in that capsule? (Heavy metals and fillers).

• Chemical Warfare: Dangerous interactions between vitamins and minerals you should never mix.

Tune in to learn how to stop guessing and start making smart choices for your health.
