Dietary carbohydrates, fiber, and breast cancer risk.
Dietary fiber, fiber fractions, carbohydrate, glycemic index, and glycemic load were prospectively assessed five times over 18 years with a validated food frequency questionnaire in relation to breast cancer risk among 88,678 women (aged 34-59 years at baseline) in the Nurses' Health Study. Incident breast cancer occurred in 4,092 of these women between 1980 and 1998. The authors observed no ma...
متن کاملProspective Association between Dietary Fiber Intake and Breast Cancer Risk
BACKGROUND Mechanistic hypotheses suggest a potential effect of dietary fiber on breast carcinogenesis through the modulation of insulin-like growth factor bioactivity, estrogen metabolism and inflammation. An association between dietary fiber intake and breast cancer risk has been suggested in epidemiological studies but remains inconclusive. In particular, data is lacking regarding the differ...

متن کاملWhole Grains, Fiber, And Breast Cancer Risk
Eating whole grains may be linked to a small reduction in breast cancer risk. Total fiber in the diet appears to have little or no association with breast cancer risk, although the fiber component of fruit and vegetables has been connected with decreased risk. Nonetheless, whole grains have been associated with a decrease in the risk of other cancers and health problems, including heart disease...
متن کاملCarbohydrates and the risk of breast cancer among Mexican women.
OBJECTIVE High carbohydrate intake has been hypothesized to be a risk factor for breast cancer, possibly mediated by elevated levels of free insulin, estrogens, and insulin-like growth factor-1. Therefore, we conducted a population-based case-control study among a Mexican population characterized by relatively low fat and high carbohydrate intakes. METHODS Women ages 20 to 75 years, identifie...
