Guest guest Posted November 23, 2006 Report Share Posted November 23, 2006 Garlic and Onions lower cancer risk Italian researchers from the Institute of Pharmacology Research in Milan analyzed data from several Swiss and Italian cancer studies. They found that the more garlic or onions you consume the lower the risk of a number of cancers. The greater the consumption of onions the lower the risk of developing colorectal, laryngeal, and ovarian cancers. Those who ate the most onions also had a lower risk of cancer of the pharynx, oral cavity, and esophagus, prostate, and breasts. Higher intake of garlic was associated with a lower risk of colorectal and renal cell kidney cancer and cancer at all sites but not strongly for the breasts. The study is published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. – J.
