1 Jan 2002
Abstract excerpt
Epidemiological studies suggest that high intake of dietary fat rich in saturated fatty acids increases the colon cancer risk whereas dietary fish oil high in omega-3 fatty acids reduces the colon cancer risk. Previously, we reported that consumption of omega-6 fatty acid rich diets such as corn oil strongly promotes azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon carcinogenesis in rats as compared to ingestion of a diet with...
