Scientific research on nutrition and natural approaches and resources in cancer. Studieabstracten study and analysis.

Here we list articles and studies or research on cancer in relation to nutrition. With some additional comments other as we found on the Internet. We will complement these articles regularly, but that takes time and we want very carefully. We have tried to research and articles in logical and more or less alphabetical order. Often an article in the name of nutrient - vitamin etc. But sometimes in diets or diet in cancer or cancer type out the first named, including bladder cancer and vitamins in the BA. So take the name of one nutrient or use search to start because of various cancers are also often important studies and articles that are not all in this list.

If there are people who can give us tips like please send us remarkable investigations and we post on the site. (See also reading list ( This list compiled by physician-biologist Erik Valstar has exceeded 1500 and are all randomized trials) and cancer rates ). In addition, a recommendation to information on proven effects of diet and nutritional supplementation in cancer of the book: Nutritional intervention in cancer, a signal to the conventional oncology. Because physician-biologist Dr Engelbert Valstar. The book costs 16.95 and the ISBN number is 90 5860 192 7.

In the left column we have posted articles on more or less alphabetical order. Sometimes the name of agent (eg Chinese herbs or form of treatment such as acupuncture or cancer such as colon cancer

Natural isoflavones vs. placebo demonstrated against bone loss in menopausal women and is especially important for people such as breast , ovarian and cervical cancer. demonstrated by randomized placebo controlled one year study in 205 women aged 49 to 65 years.

BACKGROUND: Therapy Has Been Proposed phytoestrogen isoflavones as a natural alternative to hormone replacement therapy (HRT). HRT Has A beneficial effect on bone, but few trials in humans have Investigated the effects of isoflavones on bone.

OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to determining the effect on bone density of a red clover-derived isoflavone supplement provided a daily dose or That 26 mg biochanin A, formononetin 16 mg, 1 mg genistein, and 0.5 mg daidzein for 1 y. Effects on biochemical markers of bone turnover and body composition were studied Also. DESIGN: Women aged 49-65 y (n = 205) were enrolled in a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 177 completed the trial. Bone density, body composition, bone turnover markers, and diet were Measured at baseline and after 12 mo. RESULTS: Loss of lumbar spine bone mineral content and bone mineral density was significantly (P = 0.04 and P = 0.03, respectively) lower in the women taking the isoflavone supplement than in Those taking the placebo. There were no significant treatment effects on hip bone mineral content or bone mineral density, bone resorption markers or, or body composition, but bone formation markers were significantly Increased (P = 0.04 and P = 0.01 for bone-specific alkaline phosphatase and N-propeptide or collagen type I, respectively) in the intervention group compared with placebo in postmenopausal women. Interactions Between treatment group and menopausal status with respect to changes in other outcomes were not significant.

CONCLUSION: These data suggest That, through attenuation of bone loss, isoflavones have a protective effect on the Potentially lumbar spine in women.
