Andrew Pack Supports the Prostate Cancer Foundation
The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) has led the fight against prostate cancer since its inception in 1993. The foundation is known as a reliable source for the latest developments in the field, and has served more than 16 million people. The PCF connects patients and scientists with the most up-to-date information and treatment options available for prostate cancer. Donors’ contributions have enabled the PCF to fund more than 1,500 research programs in 12 countries, as well as develop new medications and gene therapy practices that may lead to a cure for the disease. Early detection, the PCF reports, is the best way to combat prostate cancer, and regular checkups for men help achieve this goal.
Today, there are strategies that can delay the development and progression of disease, as well as two drugs, finasteride and dutasteride, that have proven successful in reducing a man’s chance of getting prostate cancer. Diet and lifestyle changes can minimize the risk of developing the disease, and the list below details the top 10 preventative measures a man can take.
1. Consume fewer calories to keep your weight at a number that’s healthy for you as an individual.
2. Exercise more to help maintain a healthy weight.
3. Keep your calcium intake below 1,500 mg a day.
4. Eat more fish for its "good fat," particularly omega-3 fatty acid.
5. Incorporate as much broccoli, cauliflower, and tomatoes cooked with olive oil that you can into your meals. Soy and green tea are other good items to consume.
6. Avoid smoking, and drink any alcohol in moderation.
7. If you experience high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or depression, seek medical treatment.
8. Don’t overdo the vitamins, as too many can actually increase the risk of developing cancer.
9. Try to relax and enjoy your life. Stress can cause myriad health difficulties, and avoiding it can help you stay disease-free.
10. Talk to your doctor and find out an interval that he or she feels is healthy for you to get rectal examinations and PSA tests.

Seabiscuit: An American Legend
by Andrew Pack With a strong belief in the humane treatment of animals, I regularly volunteer at my local Pennsylvania Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (PSPCA) animal shelter. I also enjoy reading about animals, and one of my favorite books is Seabiscuit: An American Legend, by Laura Hillenbrand. Now a major motion picture, the book presents the inspiring true story of a horse’s triumph over adversity. Born in 1933, Seabiscuit came from an impressive equine lineage, as his grandsire was the famous racehorse Man o' War. A disappointing finisher in his early competitions, Seabiscuit was sold to automobile businessman Charles Howard, and flourished under the unorthodox training of Tom Smith. In two short years, from 1936 to 1938, Seabiscuit rose to elite status among racehorses, eclipsed only by Triple Crown-winner War Admiral. Finally, in late 1938, Seabiscuit and War Admiral went head-to-head in what was dubbed by the media "The Match of the Century." Seabiscuit won that race by four lengths, and with it the honor of Horse of the Year. The following year, Seabiscuit suffered a seriously injured leg ligament, and many veterinarians declared his career over. However, by the end of 1939, Seabiscuit had made a remarkable comeback, culminating in his $121,000 victory in the La Jolla Handicap in Del Mar, California, in early 1940. Two months later, Seabiscuit officially retired and was put out to stud, siring 108 foals over the remaining seven years of his life. Interestingly, Hillenbrand’s story mimics that of Seabiscuit in many ways. As a child in the 1960s, she loved bareback horse riding, and was enamored with a children’s book about the famous horse, Come On Seabiscuit. While in college, Hillenbrand contracted a debilitating condition, chronic fatigue syndrome, which she has struggled with ever since. Writing articles for equestrian magazines, Hillenbrand found herself returning to the story of Seabiscuit over and over as a source of inspiration. Finally, in 2001, she published her account of the famous horse as her first full-length book, and achieved enduring success. I highly recommend Seabiscuit: An American Legend to any reader seeking an inspiring book that captures a vivid sense of time and place.
