This was the first randomized trial showing that intensive lifestyle changes may slow, stop, or even reverse the progression of early-stage prostate cancer. After a year, none of the men in the lifestyle group needed conventional treatments, while six men in the comparison group did. Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) levels decreased in the lifestyle group but increased in the comparison group. These results suggest that intensive lifestyle changes may benefit those with low-grade prostate cancer.
With better clinical outcomes, larger cost savings, bigger changes in lifestyle, and higher adherence and engagement, lifestyle medicine is reimbursed by Blue Shield of California, Medicare, Aetna, and many other commercial payers.
