Adding more foods loaded with phytoestrogens to our plates may boost our chances of avoiding a diagnosis of colorectal cancer.
This study examined the connection between the consumption of phytoestrogen-containing foods and the odds of receiving a diagnosis of colorectal cancer. Researchers analyzed the dietary data of 1,890 cancer-free Canadian men and women and 1,095 colorectal cancer patients.
Researchers discovered that individuals with high intake of foods rich in phytoestrogens had low chances of developing colorectal cancer. The results of this study revealed that sticking to a diet that promotes the consumption of foods packed with phytoestrogens may prove beneficial in reducing colorectal cancer risk.
