Description
The research found women with high levels of vitamins called carotenes, which can also be found in vegetables like spinach and red peppers, in their blood faced a lower risk of developing certain types of breast cancer, reported.
Richard Berks, senior research communications officer at Breast Cancer Now, said that people have long known that a healthy diet, carrots included, can help to lower your risk of breast cancer because it helps to maintain a healthy weight.
Berks noted that while it`s really important to eat vegetables as part of a balanced diet, there is unfortunately no such thing as a superfood when it comes to breast cancer risk.
He added "Everyone can reduce their risk of breast cancer and many other diseases through healthy lifestyle choices - such as maintaining a healthy weight, having a varied and balanced diet, being more active, and limiting your alcohol intake."
The study appears in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
