Fruits, Vegetables, and Bladder Cancer in Women

The July 1, 2013 issue of the Journal of Nutrition has a study that found a higher intake of fruits and vegetables resulted in a lower incidence of bladder cancer in women. Fruits and vegetables contain many vitamins and phytonutrients that may prevent turning on certain genes that promote cancer, as well as decrease overall inflammation. This association was not found in men, although eating fruits and vegetables is healthy for them as well.
