100-300 g/day fruit or vegetables reduce all-cause mortality

Objectives:
Low fruit and vegetable intakes are recognized risk factors for noncommunicable diseases. Therefore, this review article has been conducted.

Do fruit or vegetables intakes reduce noncommunicable diseases, likes cancer, coronary heart disease and all-cause mortality?

Tea reduces brain cancer in American population

Objectives:
Previous studies had demonstrated some associations between coffee and tea consumption and brain cancer risk resulted in an inconsistent relationship. Therefore, this review article has been conducted.

Study design:
This review article included 8 cohort studies and 3 case-control studies, involving 2,583 cases (persons with brain cancer) among 1,684,262 participants.

High serum iron levels increase breast cancer risk

Objectives:
Iron has been shown to promote breast carcinogenesis in animal models through generation of oxidative stress and interaction with estrogen. Heme iron, which is found exclusively in animal-sourced foods, is suggested to have a more detrimental effect. Epidemiological evidence of the association between iron and breast cancer risk remains inconclusive and has not been comprehensively summarized. Therefore, this review article has been conducted.
