Tips For Breast Cancer

Walnuts can help prevent breast cancer

Scientists from the University of Marshall (USA) found that breast cancer risk is greatly reduced when the normal diet contains a moderate amount of walnuts. However, while it is set only for mice

The study compared the effects of the usual expert’s nutrition and diet with walnuts on the life of one generation of rodents - the moment of conception until weaning and then in self-catering. Number of nuts in the diet was equivalent to 55 grams per day for humans. Mice genetically programmed to occurrence of cancer, according to compulenta.ru.

The experimental results showed that the "nut" of the group at both stages of breast cancer developed in two times less than that fed normal diet without nuts. In addition, the first group encountered fewer tumors and they were not big. In short, the scientists were able to reduce the risk of cancer, even in GM animals.


Using genetic analysis, researchers found that a diet with walnuts alters the activity of multiple genes that are associated with breast cancer in mice and humans. Other tests showed that the increase in intake of omega-3 is not the only cause of anti-tumor effect: slowing the growth of tumors when the rodents consumed more vitamins E.

Experts stressed that nutrition plays a vital role in health. From what we eat depends on the function of the body, its reaction to disease and health in general.
