The association between the inflammatory potential of diet and risk of developing, and survival following, a diagnosis of ovarian cancer
Heightened consumption of pro-inflammatory foods may result in a hike in the risk of ovarian cancer.
This study estimated the risk of ovarian cancer among consumers of pro-inflammatory foods. The dietary habits of a total of 2,790 women, of whom 1,375 of them were diagnosed with ovarian cancer, were analyzed for this study.
Researchers found a 31% increase in the risk of ovarian cancer among women with high intake of pro-inflammatory foods. This study pointed out that a woman's love for pro-inflammatory foods may make her vulnerable to ovarian cancer.
