TUDIES SHOW THAT TISSUE LEVels of arachadonic acid-and eicosopentaenoic acid (EPA)derived eicosanoids influence many physiological processes, including calcium transport across cell membranes, angiogenesis, apoptosis, cell proliferation, and immune cell function. [1][2][3][4] These processes are integral to the immune system and hence the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and asthma, as well as cancer. Epidemiological studies have suggested that groups of people who consume diets high in omega-3 fatty acids may experience a lower prevalence of some types of cancer, 5-8 and many small trials have attempted to assess the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on cancer treatment by adding omega-3 fatty acid to the diet either as omega-3 fatty acid-rich foods or as dietary supplements. [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22] In addition, dietary omega-3 fatty acids have been found to modulate mammary tumor formation and proliferation in rodents. 23 In response to this evidence, a number of omega-3 fatty acid-containing dietary supplements have appeared on the market claiming to protect against the development of a variety of conditions including cancer.

“…There also was a relation between smoking habits and consumption of vegetables and fruit, which confirms results from previous studies. 6,7,10,20 In view of this, adjustments for number of cigarettes smoked and duration of smoking were included in the analysis. As the material was relatively small, these data were only calculated for the groups never smokers, smokers and former smokers.…”

Lung cancer risks in relation to vegetable and fruit consumption and smoking

In a case-control study on lung cancer, risk was analysed in relation to smoking habits and frequency of vegetable and fruit consumption. Lung cancer cases in West Sweden and population controls were interviewed using a questionnaire where the frequency of consumption of dietary items and smoking habits were assessed. The material presented comprises 177 female and 359 male confirmed cases of lung cancer and 916 population controls. There was a dose-response relationship in regard to the number of cigarettes smoked and the number of years smoked, the latter factor being more important. After adjustment for number of cigarettes smoked/day and number of years smoked, the risk for those who seldom consumed vegetables was about twice of that among those who consumed vegetables frequently, both among nonsmokers, smokers and former smokers. This risk increase in relation to vegetable consumption also was present for different smoking categories. A similar tendency, although less pronounced, was found for fruit consumption. The results demonstrate that dietary factors are related to the risk for lung cancer, although smoking is the dominant risk factor. ' 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.Key words: smoking duration; cigarette consumption; fruit Research during the last 60 years has convincingly demonstrated that smoking is a major agent related to risk for lung cancer. Ever since the pioneering studies by M€ uller 1 and Shairer and Sch€ oniger 2 in Germany and the fundamental work by Doll and Hill in the UK, 3 a large number of investigations have shown dose-related risks and a reduction of risk after cessation. It has also been demonstrated that the risk related to smoking varies in different populations from a low 15% among Chinese females to a high 95% in Western men. Differences in population smoking habits such as inhalation or butt length could explain such findings, but other data suggest that variations in environmental factors influence the risk. 4 An important such factor is the diet.Since the first study on the influence of diet on lung cancer risk was published in 1977, a plethora of investigations have been published including prospective studies and pooled analysis of data. 5-7 A general finding is that frequent consumption of vegetables and fruit reduces the risk, [8][9][10] although there are variations between the different studies regarding the relative role of these items and differences in risk between genders have been found. Fried meat, red meat and milk have been reported to be risk factors. [11][12][13][14][15] Data have previously been reported from a lung cancer study in West Sweden in terms of data from part of the male population in the study, 16,17 data on bird keeping 18 and on the importance of vegetables, fruit and milk for the whole population. 19 These reports demonstrated an increase in risk among those consuming vegetables and fruit less frequently as well as among those frequently consuming milk. In view of the discrepancies in previous studies regarding the influence of vegetable/fruit consump...

“…Many epidemiological studies have been conducted to investigate the role of dietary pattern and various cancers (Trichopoulou et al, 2000;Prentice et al, 2007;Ozasa et al, 2001;Riboli and Norat, 2001;Mohebbi et al, 2011). Meat and processed meat for colorectal malignancy, arsenic for lung and skin cancers, beta carotene supplements for lung cancer, and aflatoxin for liver cancer have been identified in various studies (2007).…”

Background: Variation in cancer incidence in geographical locations is due to different lifestyles and risk factors. Diet and socio-economic position (SEP) have been identified as important for the etiology of cancer but patterns are changing and inconsistent. The aim of this study was to investigate correlations of the incidence of common cancers with food groups, total energy, smoking, and SEP. Materials and Methods: In an ecological study, disaggregated cancer data through the National Cancer Registry in Iran (2008) and dietary intake, smoking habits and SEP obtained through a population based survey within the Urban Health Equity Assessment (Urban-HEART) project were correlated across 22 districts of Tehran. Results: Consumption of fruit, meat and dairy products adjusted for energy were positively correlated with bladder, colorectal, prostate and breast and total cancers in men and women, while these cancers were adversely correlated with bread and fat intake. Also prostate, breast, colorectal, bladder and ovarian cancers had a positive correlation with SEP; there was no correlation between SEP and skin cancer in both genders and stomach cancer in men. Conclusions: The incidence of cancer was higher in some regions of Tehran which appeared to be mainly determined by SEP rather than dietary intake. Further individual data are required to investigate reasons of cancer clustering.
