Can Lifestyle Changes Beneficially Affect the Progression of Low-Grade Prostate Cancer and Early-Stage Alzheimer's Disease?

This presentation will review the current evidence on how low-grade prostate cancer and early-stage Alzheimer's disease development can be beneficially affected by lifestyle changes.

Participants are expected to watch the video, reflect on its content, and complete the CEU self-assessment and CEU evaluation. Only upon completing this process will a participant's continuing education certificate be generated. The estimated time a learner will need to complete this self-study activity is 60 minutes.  

This activity is approved for continuing education for physicians, nurses, and dietitians. 

The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences designates this enduring activity for a maximum of 1 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. 

Objectives:

• Describe and understand the biological mechanisms common to many chronic diseases.
• Understand how diet and lifestyle choices affect each of these biological mechanisms—for better and for worse. 

• Understand the hypothesis of why these lifestyle changes may stop or reverse the progression of early-stage Alzheimer’s disease and prostate cancer.  

Requirements for successful completion: Participants will be awarded contact hours commensurate with participation after completion of the post-test with a score of 70% or higher.
