[World News]:
Washington, Oct 20 : A study presented at the American Association for Cancer
Research Third Annual International Conference on Frontiers in Cancer Prevention
Research, has revealed that vegetables, fruits and antioxidant vitamins may
reduce the risk of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), a form of cancer of the lymphoid
tissue.
The results of the study showed that individuals who consumed three or more
servings of vegetables per day (not including potatoes) had a 40 percent lower
risk of developing NHL compared to people who ate less than one serving per day.
 The findings were
particularly strong for one or more servings per day of green leafy vegetables
and one half or more servings per day of vegetables from the broccoli and
cabbage family (including cauliflower and Brussels sprouts).
Lower risks were also found, but not very significantly, with higher intakes of
whole fruits like yellow/orange/red vegetables and processed tomato products
such as tomato sauce and tomato juice. For specific nutrients, higher intakes of
both selenium and zinc were also associated with lower risk of NHL.
The researchers, however, found no strong link to increased intakes of the
individual vitamins A, C, or E, or individual carotenoids or retinol.
"Dietary modifications such as eating more vegetables and fruits are within
the public's grasp to lower their risk of cancer and other diseases. We hope
that these findings, in conjunction with continued research and reporting, will
help to favorably change the public's eating behavior," said Dr. Linda
Kelemen of Mayo Clinic College of Medicine, who was the principal investigator
of the study. (ANI)
