Fiber Reduces Breast Cancer

A new study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that eating more fiber reduced the risk of breast cancer.  This is because women who eat more fiber have lower circulating levels of estrogen, which reduces the risk of breast cancer.  This also adds to other research on the benefits of fiber, including reduced risk of obesity, lower cholesterol levels, and reduced risk of colon cancer.
