Fiber consumption linked to lower breast cancer risk

 

Journal of Food and Clinical Nutrition is an international peer reviewed journal that publishes recent research developments made in the field of food science and nutrition biology. The journal provides an open access platform for the dissemination of the latest developments in the field of food and nutrition.

The journal encompasses a broad range of topics that include multiple aspects of nutrition, dietetics and their application in clinical nutrition, sports nutrition and public health. The journal specifically prioritizes the manuscripts that may further the advent and application of medical nutrition therapies for the treatment, management and rehabilitation of patients with one or more acute or chronic diseases.

Consuming a diet high in fiber was linked with a reduced incidence of breast cancer in an analysis of all relevant prospective studies.

Because studies have generated inconsistent results regarding the potential relationship between fiber intake and breast cancer

When the investigators pooled data from the 20 observational studies they identified, individuals with the highest consumption of fiber had an eight percent lower risk of breast cancer. Soluble fiber was associated with lower risks of breast cancer, and higher total fiber intake was associated with a lower risk in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women.

"Our study contributes to the evidence that lifestyle factors, such as modifiable dietary practices, may affect breast cancer risk." "Our findings provide research evidence supporting the American Cancer Society dietary guidelines, emphasizing the importance of a diet rich in fiber, including fruits, vegetables, and whole grains."

Importantly, the findings do not demonstrate that dietary fiber directly reduces breast cancer risk, and a randomized clinical trial is needed to test such cause and effect.
