摘要
An accumulating body of scientific evidence supports the notion that a holistic outlook on health and life and complementary and alternative medicine health practices can promote wellness and prevent and treat prostate disease. This overview explores some of the fundamental philosophical, diagnostic, and therapeutic differences between conventional and holistic medicine, and discusses how to integrate evidence-based complementary and alternative medicine, holistic medicine, and conventional medicine for the prevention and treatment of prostate disease.
