Tomato and Broccoli Prevent Prostate Cancer



Healthy lifestyles is one way to prevent prostate cancer, among others, with a healthy diet and consume a lot of tomatoes and broccoli. "Tomatoes and Broccoli is known to contain substances that can prevent cancer. It can also do therapy with vitamin E and Selenium," said Professor of the University of Airlangga (Airlangga University), Surabaya, Prof Dr H Sunaryo Hardjowijoto Spb, SPU-K.


By strengthening itself as a great teacher, he describes a diet of foods containing animal fats such as meat and fast food, is also a healthy lifestyle can minimize triggers prostate cancer.
However, he said, the most effective treatment for patients with prostate cancer is through the technique of radical surgery is performed, that is lifting all the prostate, but on condition that is still in early stages.

"Interestingly, now that the surgery can be performed by the robot and can be done in a long distance (telesurgery). In Europe has done with laparascopi and endoscopic surgery for prostate cancer," he said. But, says the author of scientific papers, entitled "Prostate Carcinoma, Current Challenges and Future Expectations", in Indonesia, especially in East Java, laparoscopi and endoscopic techniques can not be done, especially with robotic surgery.

According to him, prostate carcinoma is a cancer that originated from carcinoma of the prostate gland in the male and the most common in Western countries, even the number-two cause of cancer death.

"In America in the year 2002 as many as 189 000 patients diagnosed and known in the same year there were approximately 30.200 patients died from prostate cancer. That is equal to 10 times the number of victims of the collapse of the WTC in New York," he said.

The second treatment, he said, was with radiotherapy. "Technique is the most widely sought and performed as a substitute for surgical treatment. Doctors and patients prefer to use the way of this radiation, but the radiotherapy equipment is still quite expensive," he said. Therefore, government should help the treatment of prostate cancer patients with radiotherapy provides the tools that are still available at dr Soetomo and have seen there is a defective part.

"In Asia, with a robotic surgery technique was performed two countries, namely Singapore and Malaysia. In Singapore there are two hospitals are able to do so, while in Malaysia, only one hospital," he asserted. He added, using the robot's advantages, such as "motion skills" more perfect, even with a telesurgery may also, so that the operation was conducted in Singapore, but for existing patients in the Netherlands. "Robots can also work in ergonomics (according dent items), so the robot can perform surgery with the angle until it reaches 360 degrees. If it is doctors who do so can be sure his body would ache," he said.
