Supplements for Prostate Cancer

What Works, What’s Hype, and What Could Be Harmful

If you’ve been diagnosed with prostate cancer, or you’re living with a rising PSA, you’ve probably been told to take supplements. Lots of them.

But which ones help.
Which ones do nothing.
And which ones quietly work against you.

In this podcast, Dr. Stephen Petteruti breaks down prostate cancer supplements through a lens most men never hear: cellular biology, immune function, mitochondrial health, and long-term vitality.

Dr. Petteruti explains why prostate cancer does not begin as something you can feel, see, or detect early. It starts at the cellular level, often years before it appears on imaging or labs. That matters, because the goal is not just treating cancer. The goal is keeping it contained while protecting strength, energy, and quality of life.

In Part 1, he introduces a short list of supplements with real biological relevance. These are not random recommendations. Each one connects to a specific mechanism involved in cancer progression, immune surveillance, inflammation, or cellular energy production.

He also explains why balance matters. Free radicals are not the enemy. They are part of life. The problem is excess without adequate antioxidant defense, which becomes more common with age. This imbalance creates an environment where cancer gains momentum.

You’ll hear why certain supplements may help interfere with how cancer cells generate energy. Why others appear to support immune function in ways that go far beyond sleep or stress. And why some products marketed to men with prostate cancer lack meaningful dosing or evidence altogether.

This episode also touches on an overlooked issue many men face at the same time: prostate enlargement and urinary symptoms. Dr. Petteruti discusses why cancer and benign prostate growth often coexist, and why some supplements may support both urinary function and cellular health at the same time.

Just as important, he warns against stacking too many products, chasing trends, or trusting labels without understanding dose and mechanism. More is not better. Precision matters.

This is Part 1 of a deeper series. It sets the foundation. It challenges assumptions. And it reframes supplements as tools, not miracles.

If you want to understand how to support your body without sacrificing vitality, this conversation is worth your time.
