Background: Results from preclinical studies suggest that flavonoids, which are ubiquitous
in plant-based diets, lower breast cancer risk. Epidemiologic studies of flavonoid intake and …

Flavonoids have been investigated for possible inverse associations with various chronic
degenerative diseases, but there are no epidemiologic data concerning a possible …

Flavonoids are found in a variety of foods and have anticarcinogenic properties in
experimental models. Few epidemiologic studies have examined whether flavonoid intake is …

Background Studies have suggested the chemopreventive effects of flavonoids on
carcinogenesis. Yet numbers of epidemiologic studies assessing dietary flavonoids and …

Epidemiological studies on associations between intake of flavonoids and breast cancer risk
are highly needed to assess the actual effects of flavonoids in humans. Experimental …

Anti-tumor effect of dietary flavonoids has been sustained by laboratory experiments, but
epidemiological studies with breast cancer risk remained inconsistent and insufficient. This …

Flavonoids, which are found in certain plant foods, are thought to lower cancer risk through
their antioxidant, antiestrogenic and antiproliferative properties. We examined the …

Laboratory and animal studies suggest that dietary flavonols may reduce breast cancer risk
but there are limited epidemiological studies. We computed flavonol intakes from dietary …

Purpose In vitro and in vivo studies suggested that flavonols, flavones, flavanones and
flavan-3-ols have preventive effects on breast carcinogenesis. Epidemiological evidence …

Background: Laboratory research and a growing number of epidemiologic studies have
provided evidence for a reduced risk of breast cancer associated with dietary intake of …
