Rivanna publishes innovative health books and periodicals for prostate cancer
patients and their families.
The cornerstone
of Rivanna
Health Publications’ catalogue is their widely
read prostate cancer newsletter Prostate
Forum. In publication since June 1996
and available in e-mail or printed formats, Prostate
Forum informs readers across
the globe about prostate cancer prevention, proper staging, initial treatment,
recurrence prevention, rare forms of prostate cancer, advanced disease, and how
to deal with treatment side effects. The newsletter has recently evolved into
a highly popular reader question format: anyone can submit a question on Rivanna’s
website here.
Rivanna also offers a variety of books, including:
Eating Your Way To Better Health
This nutrition guide discusses the science behind the diet Myers recommends
for his prostate cancer patients and offers a variety of easy recipes.
Beating Prostate Cancer
Hormonal Therapy and Diet outlines Myers’s approach to androgen blockade
as either sole or adjunct treatment for prostate cancer. It also includes
Myers’s most recent dietary and supplement recommendations.
Flaxseed: Panacea or Poison
This booklet serves as a manifesto for Myers’s controversial recommendation
that ALL men avoid flaxseed and flaxseed oil and instead obtain omega 3
fatty acids from fish, fish oil supplements, or the supplement Life’sDHA
from Martek pharmaceuticals. Includes an in-depth discussion about how
to interpret health reports.
