Hutchinson, J, Lentjes, MA, Greenwood, DC et al. (16 more authors) (2012) Vitamin C intake from diary recordings and risk of breast cancer in the UK Dietary Cohort Consortium. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 66 (5). 561 - 568. ISSN 0954-3007
Abstract
Vitamin C intake has been inversely associated with breast cancer risk in case-control studies, but not in meta-analyses of cohort studies using Food Frequency Questionnaires, which can over-report fruit and vegetable intake, the main source of vitamin C. This is the first study to investigate associations between vitamin C intake and breast cancer risk using food diaries.
