Calcium and Colorectal Cancer Risk
I’ve known about the role of calcium in reducing the risk of colorectal cancer for a long time. It’s confirmed by another study in the March 2007 edition of American Journal of Epidemiology. Although there were some differences between men and women, Reuters Health reports that the researchers concluded there are “protective roles for calcium, vitamin D and dairy products”. As one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers, it would seem to be a good idea to incorporate an easy preventative measure for colorectal cancer.
