Caffeine and Prostate Cancer?

Does anyone know of any kind of correlation between caffeine and prostate cancer. My father and grandfather both died from prostate cancer at a very young age and both were heavy caffeine users. Does caffeine affect the prostate negatively in some way?

Caffeine and Prostate Cancer?
Check http://www.newtreatments.org/reams and then http://www.newtreatments.org/doc.php/Wis... that states coffee in particular is very acidic. If you're acidic at a cellular level, that's trouble.





Diet is known, without question, to affect cellular pH. If you eat acidic animal-based foods, your cellular pH is likely to be acidic, which causes disease. If you eat alkaline plant-based foods, your cellular pH is likely to be alkaline and which fights disease. It's cause and effect. There are many physiological indicators of disease such as pH, blood pressure, cholesterol, triglycerides, lymphocytes, granulocytes, weight, etc. You simply need to monitor your own health and adjust accordingly.





See Dr. Dean Ornish's findings in regard to disease and cancer here - http://www.rd.com/content/dr-dean-ornish... He says "the more people changed their diet and lifestyle, the more improvement we measured. In order to reverse disease, people needed to make much bigger changes than most doctors had been recommending."





For reference, Dr. Guyton, an expert on human physiology states in his "Textbook of Medical Physiology" (used to educate medical students): " The first steps in maintaining health is to alkalize the body ( pH or acid/alkaline balance). This is one of the most important aspects of hormeostasis. Changes in pH alter virtually all body functions. "





"The cells of a healthy body are alkaline while the cells of a diseased body are below a pH of 7.0. The more acidic the cell, the sicker we become. If the body can not alkalize the cells they will become acidic and thus, disease sets in. Our bodies produce acid as a by product of normal metabolism. Since our bodies do not manufacture alkalinity, we must supply the alkalinity from an outside source to keep us from becoming acidic and dying."
