One in every nine men develop prostate cancer during their lifetime. 
And unfortunately, prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths for men in the United States. 
So whether you're a man or a woman, pay attention: what we’re about to share could help save someone you love.
That’s right, my guest today says that there are plenty of ways for men to take charge of their prostate health and greatly reduce their chance of facing serious health issues down the line. 

And he says: You can start right NOW.
He’s Dr. Mark Stengler, a naturopathic medical doctor who was recently named “Doctor of the Decade” by the International Association of Top Professionals. Dr. Stengler is also the author of many best-selling books, including his latest release Healing the Prostate: The Best Holistic Methods to Treat the Prostate and Other Common Male-Related Conditions. 
Today Dr. Stengler and I discuss the root causes behind some of the most common men's health issues and share how you (or the men in your life) can use diet, supplements, and lifestyle choices to support a healthy prostate.
