Mike Strong, a health minister for Hallelujah Acres, was only 52 when an annual physical revealed his Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) was 31 (normal is 4 or under). Although he had no symptoms, a biopsy confirmed that he had cancer.

His doctor urged him to have a radical prostectomy to remove his prostate and surrounding tissue. He refused, but did agree to take the testosterone blocker Lupron for one year.

The Lupron made him feel extremely tired and he lost all sexual desire. The drug temporarily lowered his PSA, but it jumped to 46 when he stopped it.

Mike began researching treatments that would not cause impotence (erectile dysfunction), incontinence (urine leakage) or a host of other side effects. He went on a raw food diet, had his dental amalgams removed and took testosterone blockers, which also eliminated his libido. He joined a clinical trial, but his cancer began to spread and he lost an alarming amount of weight.
