Isoflavones and Flavonols Reduce Ovarian Cancer Risk - oncologystat.com,
8/22/08 - "Women with the highest flavonoid intake
had a 37% lower risk of ovarian cancer than those with the lowest intake. A
high intake of isoflavones, in particular, was associated with a 49%
decreased ovarian cancer risk"
-
Flavonoids and ovarian cancer risk: A case-control study in Italy - Int
J Cancer. 2008 May 19 - "In logistic regression
models including study center, education, year of interview, parity, oral
contraceptive use and family history of ovarian or breast cancer or both, an
inverse relation with significant trend in risk was found between ovarian
cancer and flavonols [odds ratio (OR), 0.63; 95% confidence intervals (CI)
0.47-0.84] as well as isoflavones (OR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.37-0.69), comparing
the highest versus the lowest quintile. Further adjustment for fruit and
vegetable intake did not modify these associations, suggesting that
isoflavones and flavonols may have a distinct role in explaining the effect
of fruit and vegetable against ovarian cancer. On the basis of our findings
and the relevant literature, we infer that isoflavones, and perhaps
flavonols, may have favorable effects with respect to ovarian cancer risk"

Coffee,
tea, colas, and risk of epithelial ovarian cancer - Cancer Epidemiol
Biomarkers Prev. 2008 Mar;17(3):712-6 - "Neither
caffeinated nor decaffeinated coffees were associated with ovarian cancer
risk; also, we observed no association of total caffeine with risk using a
combined index that summed intake from coffee, tea, and carbonated soft
drinks. Among teas, neither herbal/decaffeinated nor black teas were
associated with risk; however, women who reported drinking >/=1 cup/d of
green tea had a 54% reduction in risk" - See

Could
foods prevent ovarian cancer? - MSNBC, 3/14/08 -
"Kaempferol — a flavonoid found in tea, broccoli, kale and spinach — and
luteolin — which is provided by peppers, carrots, cabbage and celery — were
both identified as cancer protective. Women who consumed the most of these
two flavonoids were 40 percent and 34 percent less likely, respectively, to
develop ovarian cancer compared to women who consumed the least ... A 2007
study published in the British Journal of Nutrition linked greater
consumption of carotenoid phytochemicals with a 67 percent lower risk of
ovarian cancer. This included not only beta-carotene, the oft-cited
carotenoid in deep-orange vegetables and fruits, but also alpha-carotene,
beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin — carotenoids found in a wide
range of red, orange, yellow and green vegetables" - See

(GLOBOCAN). The first paper, which illuminated a similar pattern for kidney
cancer, was published Sept. 15, 2006, in the International Journal of

patterns. As expected, no effect was found during the first four years
