Resistant starch may reduce colon cancer risk from red meat.
A diet high in red meat increases risk of colon cancer. But eating resistant starch—a carbohydrate that acts like fiber—may reduce that risk, according to a study in August’s Cancer Prevention Research. “Red meat and resistant starch have opposite effects on the colorectal cancer– promoting microRNAs,” said first author Karen Humphreys, Ph.D., a research associate at the Flinders Centre for Inn...
متن کاملRed meat intake may increase the risk of colon cancer in Japanese, a population with relatively low red meat consumption.
Asian populations have changed from traditional to Westernized diets, with increased red meat intake. They are suggested to be particularly susceptible to the adverse effects of red meat on the development of colorectal cancers, however, few prospective studies of this putative link have been conducted. We examined associations between the consumption of red and processed meat and the risk of s...
متن کاملInhibition by resistant starch of red meat-induced promutagenic adducts in mouse colon.
Population studies have shown that high red meat intake may increase colorectal cancer risk. Our aim was to examine the effect of different amounts and sources of dietary protein on induction of the promutagenic adduct O(6)-methyl-2-deoxyguanosine (O(6)MeG) in colonocytes, to relate these to markers of large bowel protein fermentation and ascertain whether increasing colonic carbohydrate fermen...
متن کاملAromatase inhibitors may reduce endometrial cancer risk.
Use of aromatase inhibitors, which are known to reduce endogenous oestrogen levels, as adjuvant therapy had a lower risk of endometrial cancer, compared with that of patients who were treated with tamoxifen, results of a new study show. In this study, Rowan Chleblowski and colleagues (Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA, USA) examined the rec...
متن کاملRed meat and colon cancer: should we become vegetarians, or can we make meat safer?
The effect of meat consumption on cancer risk is a controversial issue. However, recent meta-analyses show that high consumers of cured meats and red meat are at increased risk of colorectal cancer. This increase is significant but modest (20-30%). Current WCRF-AICR recommendations are to eat no more than 500 g per week of red meat, and to avoid processed meat. Moreover, our studies show that b...
