Folate, methyl-related nutrients, alcohol, and the MTHFR 677C-->T polymorphism affect cancer risk: intake recommendations.

The Journal of nutrition - 1 Nov 2003

Bailey Lynn B

Abstract excerpt

Colorectal cancer and adenoma risk are inversely associated with higher total folate intake. Significant modifiers of cancer risk also include other methyl-related nutrients and alcohol. Adequate folate intake is particularly important for women at higher risk for breast cancer because of moderate alcohol consumption. The methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) 677C-->T polymorphism is associated with a...
