How powerful is exercise in the fight against advanced prostate cancer? Dr. Geo speaks with world-renowned exercise oncology expert Dr. Rob Newton from Australia, whose groundbreaking research has shaped how clinicians approach fitness and cancer care. From bone metastasis to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), Dr. Newton explains how the right exercise, at the right dose, can not only improve quality of life but potentially extend it.Together, they explore the science, practical guidelines, and inspiring stories behind using movement as medicine—even for men with metastatic, castration-resistant disease.Key TakeawaysExercise is medicine for men with prostate cancer—including advanced and metastatic cases.Resistance training helps preserve or build muscle during androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), reducing side effects like fatigue, bone loss, and metabolic issues.Even with bone metastases, exercise can be done safely with modified strength programs—no increase in fractures observed in studies.Muscle strength and fitness are strongly linked to lower cancer-related and all-cause mortality.Myokines released from working muscles have direct anti-cancer effects and support immune function.Focus on large muscle groups (legs, back, chest) using moderate to heavy weights—6 to 15 reps per set.Tailor workouts to the individual: more strength training for muscle loss, more cardio for heart/metabolic risk.Periodized, varied routines improve outcomes and help patients tolerate treatments like chemo better._________________________ Introducing The Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast Exclusive MembershipWe'll continue bringing you powerful weekly episodes to support your prostate health journey.

Is diet making your prostate cancer better—or worse? With countless influencers pushing plant-based diets, keto carnivores, and everything in between, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and unsure about what to eat.In this essential solo episode, Dr. Geo dives deep into the real science and practical insights from over 30 years of experience in nutritional research, clinical practice, and personal experimentation. Whether you're newly diagnosed, in treatment, or working on prevention, this episode will help you feel clearer, more confident, and empowered about your food choices.You'll learn what the research really says, why one-size-fits-all diets don't work, and how to eat in a way that supports longevity, muscle retention, and a healthier microbiome—without guilt or confusion.KEY POINTS FROM THE EPISODEThere's no one-size-fits-all diet for prostate cancer.Every person's condition, goals, and needs are different. Be cautious of diet “gurus” and extreme positions.No one food causes or cures cancer.Forget the hype around “superfoods” or villainizing a single food group—context, quality, and quantity matter most.Most people simply eat too much.Overeating—not any one nutrient—is a major contributor to health issues. Practice mindful eating and avoid nighttime pantry raids.Time-restricted eating can help.Consider 12:12 or 16:8 intermittent fasting based on your protein needs and lifestyle. It's about balance, not punishment.Protein quality > quantity.About ½ gram per pound of body weight is enough for most men—especially those 60+ or on androgen deprivation therapy. Salmon is one of the best options.Not all meats are created equal.Processed meats (like cold cuts and hot dogs) and high-heat cooking methods are problematic—not grass-fed meats or lean cuts eaten in moderation.Complex carbs are NOT the enemy.Whole grains, legumes, and vegetables feed your microbiome and offer critical phytonutrients. Just watch for arsenic in certain brown rice.Fats should come from whole, natural sources.Omega-3s (like from fish oil), olive oil, avocado, and even some saturated fats can be part of a healthy plan. Avoid trans fats from fried and overly processed foods.Build in an “Eff-It Day.”Sustainability is key. Enjoy 1 day a week (or 3 meals weekly) guilt-free—no need for perfection. You can live and eat well at the same time.Stay empowered.You are not powerless. The way you eat, move, and live can positively influence your prognosis.----------------Thank you to our partnersThe ProLon 5-Day Fasting Mimicking Diet is a plant-based meal program designed to provide fasting benefits while allowing food intake.

In this episode of the Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast, Dr. Geo welcomes Dr. Gurdev Parmar, a pioneer in naturopathic and integrative oncology. They dive deep into the science and application of hyperthermia as a cancer treatment, particularly for prostate cancer. Dr. Parmar explains the different types of hyperthermia—local-regional, which targets tumors, and whole-body, which mimics a fever to stimulate the immune system. They discuss how hyperthermia enhances cancer treatments by increasing oxygenation, producing heat shock proteins that make cancer cells more recognizable to the immune system, and sensitizing tumors to radiation and chemotherapy. The conversation also explores the challenges of FDA approval, the state of clinical research, and why hyperthermia isn't more widely available in the U.S. Dr. Parmar shares insights from his 14 years of treating patients with hyperthermia and how this therapy, when combined with integrative oncology, has led to significant improvements in survival rates.Key Takeaways:Hyperthermia works by raising tissue temperature, making cancer cells more vulnerable while sparing healthy cells.Heat shock proteins triggered by hyperthermia help the immune system recognize and attack cancer cells.When used alongside radiation or chemotherapy, hyperthermia improves treatment effectiveness by increasing tumor oxygenation.Whole-body hyperthermia mimics a natural fever response, enhancing the body's immune defense against cancer.A typical treatment cycle includes multiple local-regional hyperthermia sessions per week, with whole-body hyperthermia performed once a week for two sessions.Despite strong evidence supporting hyperthermia, regulatory and financial barriers limit its availability in the U.S.Clinical data from Dr. Parmar's practice shows significantly improved survival rates in stage 4 cancer patients using hyperthermia as part of a multimodal treatment approach.Tune in for an eye-opening discussion on the potential of hyperthermia in cancer care and why it remains an underutilized tool in oncology.----------------Thank you to our partnersThe ProLon 5-Day Fasting Mimicking Diet is a plant-based meal program designed to provide fasting benefits while allowing food intake.

Dr. Dominic Brady, an award-winning plastic surgeon, was diagnosed with incurable Multiple Myeloma in 2017. Determined to augment his conventional treatment naturally, he did a deep dive into extensive cancer and nutrition research. As a result, Dr. Brady adopted a whole food, plant-based diet, regular exercise, and targeted supplements. His remarkable remission has surprised his oncologist, and he's now on an extremely low dose of immunomodulators, with a goal to completely eliminate medication—something previously thought impossible for myeloma patients.  In this episode, Dr. Brady shares his journey from being a cancer patient to helping others navigate their own cancer treatments. He highlights the critical role of nutrition, which is largely neglected in medical training.

Key Points: From Traditional Medicine to Nutrition-Focused Approaches: Dr. Antoun's journey from conventional medicine to nutrition and fasting. Realization that traditional medicine often manages rather than cures chronic diseases. Biological Age and Cellular Aging: The significance of biological age in age-related diseases. Research showing that slowing biological aging can extend healthy life years. Collaboration with Dr. Valter Longo and Development of ProLon: Partnership with Dr. Valter Longo, a fasting mimicking diet advocate. Co-founding L-Nutra and creating ProLon, a nutrition program aimed at reversing biological age. Validation through clinical trials in 18 universities.

In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks chats with Dr. Valter Longo about his latest research on the fasting-mimicking diet (FMG) and how it has been shown in studies to reduce biological age and disease risk. In great detail, he describes the fasting-mimicking diet and its components while explaining how it was tested in clinical trials for its effect on biological age and disease risk. Dr. Longo describes the difference between biological age and chronological age and how he and his team measured biological age in the studies. Not attributing the benefits of the fasting-mimicking diet to weight loss alone, Dr. Valter offers theories for how it reduces biological age. Importantly, he comments on the controversial fasting study that suggests 8-hour-time-restricted eating is linked to a 91% higher risk of death from heart disease and closes by telling us what he thinks is the best fasting protocol and why. Dr. Longo  is a professor of gerontology and biological sciences and director of the Longevity Institute at the University of Southern California, a leading center for research on aging and age-related diseases. He also serves as the Director of the Longevity and Cancer Program at the Institute of Molecular Oncology in Milan, Italy. He is author of the internationall best-selling book, The Longevity Diet.  Holding a PhD in biochemistry from UCLA, his research focuses on the mechanisms of aging, including dietary and genetic interventions to slow biological aging.

Also, check out the newly available L-Protein, a plant-based protein, at prolonfmd.com/Drkahn. Our main discussion centers on the recent findings from the TACT2 trial, where intravenous chelation therapy in 1,000 heart patients followed over four years failed to improve outcomes. This result is particularly disheartening following the promising TACT trial published in 2013, and it likely signals the end of funded research for chelation therapy.
