Eating (with or without cancer): 12 Simple Rules
Eating right hard isn’t it? The best foods are not quite as appetizing or just not readily accessible.
Well, after 10 years of deep research on the best “Diet,” (a term I abhor) and sifting through hundreds of scientific 
papers, reading all the diet books from Atkins to Zone, I have compiled these 12 simple rules for exceptional eating.
These rules apply to everyone, particularly those combating cancer.
Beyond dieting, these 12 eating rules should rid your psyche of the old useless way of thinking (i.e. calorie counting) and adopting a new way of thinking – eating real food
12 Simple Rules to exceptional eating.
- Do not eat ANY food with guilt, ie. enjoy the darn cookie every now and then
- If your grandmother does not or would not recognize the food, it’s probably NOT A FOOD.
- Spice it up. Spices are therapeutic and just taste good. Rosemary, garlic, thyme, turmeric, oregano are all good. Added to food – even your omelet.
- If the food takes a long time to spoil or it doesn’t spoil, it’s not good for you. All good food spoils within a relatively short time.
- If the ingredients list is more than 4 unpronounceable words, it’s probably JUNK. Best foods have just one word as an ingredient, e.g. broccoli
- Limit sugars, fruit juices and white flour foods as much as Godly possible. Yes fruit juice too. It’s only marginally better than soda. Very few exceptions.
- If eating MEATS, no problem. Meat consumption is not the evil food it has been made out to be. Just don’t overcook. Best if the animal source was eating their natural diet before it ended up on your plate. e.g. Cattle should eat grass not corn or grains. Chickens eat worms.
- Drink 6 to 8 glasses of CLEAN water a day. If eating lots of fruits and vegetables, only 4 to 6 cups a day is needed. Tea also counts.
- Portion control – is OK to leave food on your plate – don’t tell your mother I said that.
- Eat mostly plants, especially greens. They are filled with tons of plant chemicals that are more anti-carcinogenic. Eat the DIRTY DOZEN organically.
- Exclude diets of exclusion; low-fat this, low-carb that, diet this, low sugar that. If you are going to have ice cream, have the real thing. See rule #1.
- Buy foods from LOCAL FARMS or FARMERS MARKETS (even if it’s not labeled organic) first, then health food stores.
Good books to read ( by no means is this list complete):
In Defense of Food – An Eater’s Manifesto by Micheal Pollan
Anti-Cancer – a new way of life by David Servan-Schreibe
If you find this information valuable please share with friends and family.
Make it a remarkable day.

Dear Dr. Espinosa,
I like Prost-P10x ingridients and going to purchase it.
I have some prostate enlagment and sometimes have to urinate twice at night. PSA is 1.1. What dose of P10x do you recommend?
Note: your product is not on the list of Prostate Support Center (www.Prostate-Support-Center.com). Why?
Thanks

Hi Leonard, take one packet two to three hours before bedtime. That should be enough. I am not sure why ProstP10x is not listed on that website. I will ask Craig Cooper from prostate research labs to look into it. Let me know how you do.

Prostate Support is not a credible and authentic source of information on prostate supplements. It looks like it is a retail store operating under the disguise of a “Prostate Health Center”. There is no information on who the staff are or who operates the website. If you would like any more information on Prost-P10x you can search many of the great articles online including http://www.prostate.net/2011/supplements/prost-p10x%C2%AE-prostate-supplement-for-bph-prostatitis-mens-health/ and http://www.prostate.net/2011/bph/prost-p10x-ingredients-white-papers/. You can also find information on P10x on similar site such as http://www.prostate-health-center.com/prostate-supplement-review.php which is similar to the site you were looking at. Thanks again for the inquiry and please use discount code “gethealthy” for an additional 10% if you decide to order Prost-P10x at http://www.prostateresearchlabs.com.

Thank you! I will order, and try and let you know of the results. My doctors like ingridients of Prost-P10x.
Another question: talking of food you, Dr.Geo, did not mention milk products. I use Kefir of high quality to get Ca:
Green Vallley Organics, lactose free Kefir, plain, grade A low fat, pasteurized cultured milk, certified human raised and handled. Ingridients: organic lowfat milk, Lactaze enzime, Vit. A, and a bunch of Flourish Live Active Cultures.
Many people state that pasteurized milk products should not be used at all (Dr.Mercola and other). What do you think? I like that Kefir but not sure to use.
Also I need consultation of how to properly choose the supplements considering my health problems. Now I am trying to get nutritions from food and new supplements called Food Vitamins to avoid sinthetics. Could you help me? First: I am 76 and had low TST at the last blood test.
(Though I am still pretty strong – former athlet)
Dr. Morgentaler office suggested to use Androgel 1% but oher doctors opposed that. What about natural treatment?
Appreciate your help

Hi Leonard,
I am afraid to misdirect you with your personal health questions. Being an internet doctor can be dangerous and irresponsible.
In regards to your dietary questions: Milk is best unpasteurized and from grass-fed cattle. If not, don’t drink it. Kefir is good. If you would like to set up a
phone consult with me please call my office and speak with Marie – she will let you know how it works and set you up. The phone number is
646-744-1515. Best. GE
