You’ve probably heard warnings about genetically modified foods. But what does the science actually show? A new large review looked at global health trends after GM crops were introduced and the findings challenge some common assumptions.

For many people, coffee is simply the ritual that starts the day. But a growing body of research suggests that this daily cup may be doing far more than providing a caffeine boost. Coffee contains a remarkable collection of bioactive compounds that scientists are increasingly studying for their potential role in cancer prevention. In this week’s Monday Brief, I’m sharing a short excerpt from my upcoming book that explores what the research actually shows, and why your morning coffee might deserve a closer look.

Want to live longer? This week's Prostate 180 shows you how. We explore several surprising areas: how your diet helps counter some of the metabolic side effects of hormone therapy, why certain plant compounds in garlic and ginseng are attracting attention from cancer researchers, and how lifestyle interventions may improve long-term health for prostate cancer survivors.

Aren’t broccoli sprouts expensive?If you’re buying them at the store, I would agree. Half a cup a day can easily run $4–$5, and that adds up fast. That’s exactly why I don’t buy them anymore. In the short video that goes along with this post, I’ll show you how to grow your own broccoli sprouts at home. It’s simple, inexpensive and once you do it once, you’ll wonder why you ever paid retail. A few tablespoons of seeds can give you days’ worth of fresh sprouts for pennies, not dollars.

One of the most surprising truths in PCa care is this: for many men, the greatest threat to long-term survival is not the cancer itself, but cardiovascular disease. Large population studies have consistently shown that men diagnosed with PCa are more likely to die from cardiovascular disease than from the PCa itself. Several papers in this week’s issue explore why that risk exists, how common therapies like androgen deprivation therapy often accelerate it, and why cardiovascular health should be front and center from day one of diagnosis.

Sounds ridiculous, yet there are definitely correlating evidence. One of the papers we review this week highlights meal timing as a modifiable behavior that may influence early carcinogenic processes long before cancer develops. The authors point to daytime-aligned eating as a potential countermeasure, not because it reduces calories, but because it restores circadian alignment and microbial rhythm.

One of the unexpected results of disseminating this information has been the questions and interactions I have experienced with our readers. As I have mentioned previously, I am surprised by the number of women who subscribe, and as a result, the topic of breast cancer comes up. Prostate cancer is the male version of breast cancer, for lack of a better description. Hormones and genetics drive both and there are striking similarities between the two, including the number of patients affected.

This week we focus on multiple therapies like adding enzalutamide to your androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), also called doublet therapy, the benefits of citrus fruits to strengthen your bones during ADT and melatonin to combat the hot flashes that come with ADT. Just for fun, I added a paper paying tribute to honeybee products. Every year, I see fewer and fewer honey bees. They are so important and at the same time, so overlooked.

Broccoli sprouts may be small, but their biological impact is outsized. Packed with sulforaphane at levels that dwarf mature broccoli, these sprouts favorably affect oxidative stress, inflammation and cellular defense: all areas directly related to PSA behavior and prostate biology. Want to know why broccoli sprouts have earned serious attention in prostate research? Read on.
