Fiber intake and the risk of oral, pharyngeal and esophageal cancer.
Generous intake of fiber-rich foods may reduce the risk of developing oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal cancer.
This research work studied the consumption of high-fiber foods in relation to the subsequent development of oral, pharyngeal, and esophageal cancer. Researchers assessed the diets of 2,852 subjects and tracked the incidence of oral, esophageal, and pharyngeal cancer in the study population.
Researchers observed that regular consumers of foods rich in fiber had less chances of developing oral, esophageal, and pharyngeal cancer compared to individuals who rarely indulged in these types of foods. The This study provides evidence supporting the protective effect of high-fiber diets on esophageal, oral, and pharyngeal cancer..
