Exposure To Acrylamide Thru Food Does Not Cause Breast Cancer
Foods that contain acrylamide are unlikely to cause breast cancer in women, according to preliminary results of a new study involving 100,000 U.S. women. The finding, the largest epidemiological study to date exploring the possible link between acrylamide and cancer in humans, was described today at the 234th national meeting of the American Chemical Society. "At levels consumed in the diet, it appears unlikely that acrylamide in foods is related to breast cancer risk," says study leader Lorelei Mucci, ScD, an epidemiologist at Channing Labs at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard School of Public Health in Boston. In prior work, her group also examined dietary acrylamide and risk of cancer of the colon, rectum, bladder and kidney, and similarly found no association. "Although we do not rule out that very high levels of acrylamide could cause cancer, it appears that at the levels found in the diet, it is unlikely." Natural Cancer Treatments!!! Non-toxic Heal...
