We all know that working in noisy environments is bad for the ears. Many people who work in loud areas, like construction sites or concert venues, can and should wear ear protection. But others aren’t so lucky.

If you have angina, and it’s under control, your cardiologist shouldn’t resort to surgery. But more and more surgeons are rushing to use the knife. But if you have angina, you don’t have to submit to surgery. You can beat the problem without dangerous surgery or drugs.

This is the kind of story that makes it all worth it. Bob is a 74-year-old guy who was more or less forced to take things into his own hands. About two years ago, he had a PSA of 8.4 ng/ml. His doctors told him he probably had prostate cancer and needed a biopsy (specifically a 12-core biopsy — more on that in a minute). But Bob has been a newsletter reader of mine for years. And he remembered that in the past I had reported that most prostate cancer biopsies were not needed. So he passed on that. And instead decided to find a doctor who knew how to treat prostate cancer naturally without needing a biopsy. And that’s where he started to have some problems.
