Research in China recently argued, women are a lot of fiber consumption less likely suffer from breast cancer than those who ate fewer fiber.
This research does not directly prove the fibers as a cancer risk-lowering. However, after all, women who consume a lot of fiber on the whole they are more healthy than eating fibre is not at all.
According to researchers from Soochow University, who go on a diet high in fiber have lower levels of the hormone estrogen. The hormone estrogen is known as one of the risk factors trigger breast tumors.
In his research, the researcher is a combination of 10 previous studies that observe the dietary patterns of women. About 710.000 women in this study observed for seven to 18 years to see the risk they have cancer.
As a result, it is known that as many as 2.4 per cent of women experienced breast cancer. However, among women who placed among the top five (at most eating fiber), the risk of their 11 percent less for the exposed breast cancer.
Some literature is recommended, at least 25 grams for women in need of fiber per day, while men have to cover 38 grams of fiber per day.
"Increase your intake of fibrous food is very important for the sake of public health," says the research team from China to memublikasikan his findings in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
Meanwhile, Dr. Eleni Linus from Stanford University, who was not involved in such research, argued that the effect of eating fiber for lowering the risk of cancer is relatively small.
The same is expressed by Christina Clarke, scientists from the Cancer Prevention Institute of California in Fremont. "Although the relationship between the risk of breast cancer and the fiber is very small, but the fiber is something we know is very unhealthy for everyone," he said.
According to Clarke, a diet high in fiber is very good at controlling cholesterol and weight loss. "However, if it turns out fiber consumption may reduce risk of cancer, it will be an added bonus," said Clarke.
