Dietary Inflammatory Index and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer in Southern Chinese Women: A Case-Control Study
A pro-inflammatory diet may lead to a spike in ovarian cancer risk in women.
This study assessed the inflammatory potential of a diet in relation to the development of ovarian cancer. Researchers compared the eating habits of 500 Chinese women with ovarian cancer with that of 500 adult females free from the disease.
Researchers noted that the greater the rate of consumption of pro-inflammatory foods, the higher a woman's risk of developing ovarian cancer. This study demonstrated that diets with high inflammatory potential may fuel the development of ovarian cancer in women.
