Men who have Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) recurrence with low PSA levels and long doubling times do not require immediate treatment with androgen deprivation therapy and may be safely observed. In these situations where current treatment options may cause more unnecessary side effects than anticipated benefit, it is reasonable to use a low-risk natural product such as Acai Juice Product with antioxidant properties to evaluate whether there are any anti-cancer effects.

In this study, patients who meet eligibility criteria will take Acai Juice 2 ounces by mouth twice daily on a continuous basis.

PSA will be obtained at baseline, every 6 weeks for the first 6 months, then every 3 months thereafter.

Doubling time of PSA is the time that it takes for PSA to increase by 100%. Doubling time was calculated prior to starting study treatment and after starting study treatment.

Gleason score is a system of grading prostate cancer tissue. A pathologist examines each biopsy core and determines a Gleason sum (X+Y=Z), ranging from 6 to 10. Gleason 6 cancers appear similar to normal prostate tissue and indicate that the tumor is less likely to spread and that have a low risk of recurrence after initial treatment. Gleason 8, 9, 10 cancers are high risk cancers, indicating that the tumor is more likely to spread and there is a high risk of cancer recurrence after initial treatment. Gleason 7 cancers are considered intermediate risk.
