“…Many studies have been done in recent decades about the effect of higher vegetable and fruit intake in reducing the risk of various types of cancer especially reduction of the risks of epithelial cancer types, particular types of breast cancer but maybe not prostate cancer but in general, cancer determined as the correspondingly associated with the plant food intake [18].…”

The purpose of this review is to demonstrate the significance and involvement of Nutritional Epidemiology in public health. The investigation of solving health issues that are linked to the Nutrition-related Diseases and food intake that are used by Physicians, Nutritionists, Dietitians as well as other Health Providers and Professionals of Public Health Community. Representing applied Researches that show the involvement of Nutritional Epidemiology in Public Health and the accomplishments of Nutritional epidemiology related to nutrient intake and healthy diet. Transformation of the diet-related diseases by Nutritional Epidemiologists into a Platform of Practice to Prevent these Diseases and Raise Individual or Public Awareness by nutritional recommendations. To show the influence and importance of Nutritional Epidemiology on Public Health, with a focus on the impact of the healthy food and lifestyle on diet-related diseases, decrease the risks of Morbidity and Mortality Diseases, identification of the Nutrient deficiencies between Childhood to Adulthood groups.

“…Individual dietary components are often credited for increasing (eg, red meat consumption) or decreasing (eg, fiber) CRC risk, but the evidence is uneven and relatively weak. 47,48 For example, individuals in the highest quartile of red meat consumption have an approximately 40% increased risk of CRC over individuals in the lowest quartile. 49,50 This association was observed in retrospective studies but was not significant in prospective studies.…”

African Americans have the highest incidence and mortality rates of colorectal cancer (CRC) of any ethnic group in the United States. Although some of these disparities can be explained by differences in access to care, cancer screening, and other socioeconomic factors, disparities remain after adjustment for these factors. Consequently, an examination of recent advances in the understanding of ethnicity-specific factors, including genetic and environmental factors relating to risk of CRC, the biology of CRC progression, and the changes in screening and mortality, is important for evaluating our progress toward eliminating the disparities. An overarching limitation in this field is the number and sample size of studies performed to characterize the etiological bases of CRC incidence and mortality in African Americans. Despite this limitation, significant differences in etiology are manifest in many studies. These differences need validation, and their impacts on disparities need more detailed investigation. Perhaps most heartening, improvements in CRC screening can be attributed to the smallest difference in CRC incidence between African Americans and whites since the late 1980s. Cancer mortality, however, remains a persistent difference.

“…2 We acknowledge that error occurs in all measurements, including in self-reported dietary assessment. However, as pointed out by others, such data can still be used to establish valid conclusions 2, 10 and can set new questions for clinical trials.…”
