Higher concentrations of carotenoids, found in many foods, significantly lower breast cancer risk

“My patients respond to the Anticancer Lifestyle Program in a way I find unprecedented in 30 years of Radiation Oncology practice. It helps them feel that we are caring for them, and not just delivering cancer treatment.”

“I am so glad I found the AntiCancer Lifestyle Program. This is an amazing idea and gift. Our son-in-law at 39 has glioblastoma. After surgery, chemo, and radiation we hope, no relapse. Hope, however, is not a plan. My wife and I are changing to help him change.”

Articles & Research

A study by Eliassen et al, published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, found that high concentrations of dietary carotenoids were associated with 18–28% statistically significantly lower risks of breast cancer.

Carotenoids are found in many foods, such as squash, carrots, spinach, kale, tomatoes, grapefruit, oranges, and apricots.

The study’s conclusion: “In this large prospective analysis with 20 y of follow-up, women with high plasma carotenoids were at reduced breast cancer risk particularly for more aggressive and ultimately fatal disease.”
