Folate and Vitamin B12 Decrease Risk of Breast Cancer
A study released by the Instituto Nacional de Salud Publica and Harvard School of Public Health observed the effects of folate intake among 1,391 Mexican women. The study uncovered a lower incidence of breast cancer among postmenopausal women who took folate and vitamin B12. The study concluded that high intakes of these two supplements were associated with decreased breast cancer risk, particularly in postmenopausal women. These findings could be supported with additional research. Source: The Journal Cancer Epidemiology Biomarkers & Prevention, Volume 15, March 2006. Read More.
