    :confused:

    I read this on youtube

    "Do you know why older men get prostate cancer? It's because they have less of a sexual drive and masturbate/have sex less, and excess semen builds up. This buildup of excess semen has been linked to prostate cancer. If you do not masturbate, you WILL get cancer."

    :(

    What do you think about it?
     
  2. I have heard that the link between regular ejaculation and prostate cancer is a myth. I don't have sources though, you might want to look this up.

    Not sure about that at all. I know someone who went to the doctors recently with a pain in his balls and the doctor more or less said older men (past 30 I think he said) are far less likely to get prostate cancer. I don't know why he said that but then again isn't going to the pharmaceutical 'industry' trained drug pusher we call 'doctor' akin to taking a spaceship to a backstreet mechanic? And that's nothing personal do doctors per se just an observation based on what I have both witnessed and researched over the years.

    And I am not talking about western health cares ability to fix/build/repair etc but the general approach to the treatment of disease which focuses primarily on symptoms cure and cares very little for prevention (which is FAR FAR less 'profitable') In fact I had a wonderful doctor several years ago who was about to retire extremely disillusioned and the last thing he ever said to me was "please, only if you have tried every possible so called 'alternative' should you ever go to a doctor for help with your health"(!!)

    Also, and I have family members who have died of cancer (who hasn't) I have long been extremely dubious of the 'causes' of cancer and I urge people to do their own research into B17 (and B17 metabolic therapy etc), good starting points are anything on YouTube with Edward G Griffin and anything by Philip Day who wrote the brilliantly researched book, 'Cancer- Why we are Still Dying to Know the Truth'. Another fantastic research is 'Great News for Cancer in the 21st Century' by Steven Ranson which is just fantastic (if a little shocking if your new to this information)

    There's lots of information about this out there and of course there's equal amounts debunking it and I have checked out the lot over the years (which is why I am recommending the above!!)

    Also check out Philip Days Campaign for Truth in Medicine http://campaignfortruth.com/

    You don't have to agree with this, I am simply putting it out there as I believe we all have a right to make an 'informed' choice, which, as ever, is your call;)

    That sounds like total bollocks to me.

    I would research this on scholarly articles, be skeptic about youtube videos. Anyone can post anything.

    Cancer, in general, occurs late in life. So older people are more predisposed to all other kinds of cancers. so the first statement is a little invalid, it can be true to so many other cancers as well.

    As to whether there is a link between the frequency of ejaculations and prostate cancer risk? well, there seems to be some studies on this. Look at this article: http://jama.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=198487.

    In short, the study finds that low ejaculation frequency does not increase risk of prostate cancer.

    Hopefully this helps!

    Another excellent resource is a book called 'the Medical Mafia' by Guylaine Lanctot and once you understand how the pharmaceutical big business medical 'industry' works you will never look at it the same again. But again, I'm just putting this information out there and its entirely up to you what you make of it. And yes another good point somebody made was anyone can put stuff on YouTube so you need to check out that info (which is why you created this thread I guess) but good point nevertheless.

    This is complete bullshit. Don't listen to the lie. There are multiple studies showing different results so it should not be taken seriously. Just use logic reasoning.

    Remember they WANT you to fap.

    "If you do not masturbate, you WILL get cancer."

    Respectfully, bollocks. Otherwise cancer would be cured by endless masturbation. In which event I would by now be the man most likely to never get cancer on the planet.

    I will say I did research the claim, and I have seen it made in forums that support masturbation as a healthy way of life. My problem was never with masturbation, per se, but PMO, that is high speed internet porn abuse.

    Thanks for posting.

    Peace.

    Cancer and masturbation have no link.

    Thank you for all your replies !

    I'm not a specialist but I think this is BS too. And even if it was true, during the past 10 years I jerked off enough for 5 lives so I'm immunized :cool:

    I agree about the medical and pharmaceutical mafia. I don't trust them. And I'm glad I'm starting this NoFap challenge in my life, jerking off 5 times a day is not enjoyable at all.

    Good luck to you all.

    33 days without masturbation? How are you holding on? Is it easier now?

    I don't know if its easier? I just came to the full realisation that PMO was a fundamentally flawed 'pastime' as so I decided to do some research, came across this site and thought thas it, this is for me so I believe in this and that, more than anything keeps me going. And I will not be going back, ever!!

    Just have a look at these links for an idea of how I approach it then if you want follow the links at the bottom of each one. You'll get lots of perspectives on here, which is great, but if these help that's great too. All the best :)
