HOUSTON—There has been a lot of controversy lately about prostate cancer screenings. A government advisory panel recently recommended that doctors stop using the PSA test which screens healthy men for prostate cancer.

June kicks off Men’s Health Awareness month and one cancer survivor from Houston, Gabe Canales, and the Blue Cure Foundation has a message for everyone.

Their mission is the topic of a nationwide documentary about the anti-cancer lifestyle. It is scheduled to be released in 2013.

Gabe Canales – Board of Directors

Founder & President, Blue Cure® Foundation

Prostate cancer has long been considered an “old man’s disease.” Meet the new face of prostate cancer: Gabe Canales, who was diagnosed at 35.

The former Houston marketing and PR executive didn’t even know what a PSA was until an inadvertent test of his blood revealed he had prostate cancer — at age 35.

That galvanized Canales into awareness – and action. He quickly launched the non-profit Blue Cure Foundation, which now has a Facebook following of many thousands across the globe and works to educate all men “but especially a younger generation,” Canales said. “Cancer prevention begins when men are boys.”

As founder and spokesman for Blue Cure – the men’s side of women’s “pink” movement for breast cancer – Canales has spoken at conferences across America and has appeared on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox affiliates in New York, Los Angeles, Houston and other cities to alert people that America’s top cancer killer of men must be stopped.

Each year, another 240,000 brothers, husbands, sons and fathers are diagnosed. Canales believes many of those cancers are preventable, via integrative medicine and smart dietary and lifestyle changes. Blue Cure supports such preventative measures, as well as research for a cure.

Also a blogger for the Houston Chronicle and the Huffington Post, Canales is especially reaching out to younger males with his message of getting screened for prostate cancer at an earlier age and adopting healthier habits. Blue Cure also shares news on research and treatments, including alternative treatment options, and has an online support group for thousands of survivors and their families: Journey With Prostate Cancer.
