[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]Eating a lot of red meat in early adult life may slightly increase the risk of breast cancer, according to a US study.[/b][/size][/font][font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px][b]美国一项研究发现,刚入成年时吃大量的红色肉类可能稍微增加患乳腺癌的风险。[/b][/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Harvard researchers say replacing red meat with a combination of beans, peas and [b]lentils(扁豆)[/b], [b]poultry(家禽)[/b], nuts, and fish may reduce the risk in younger women.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]But UK experts urge caution, saying other studies have shown no clear link between red [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/97008.html]meat[/url] and breast cancer.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Past research has shown that eating a lot of red and processed meat probably increases the risk of bowel cancer.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]The new data comes from a US study tracking the health of 89,000 women aged 24 to 43.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]A team, led by Harvard School of Public Health in Boston, analysed the diets of almost 3,000 women who developed breast cancer.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"Higher red meat intake in early adulthood may be a risk factor for breast cancer," they report in the British Medical Journal.[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"And replacing red meat with a combination of legumes, poultry, nuts and fish may reduce the risk of breast [url=http://www.enread.com/news/cultureandedu/97008.html]cancer[/url]."[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Dr Maryam Farvid and colleagues described the risk as "small".[/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]Prof Tim Key, an epidemiologist at the University of Oxford, said the US study found "only a weak link" between eating red meat and breast cancer, which was "not strong enough to change the existing evidence that has found no definite link between the two". [/size][/font]
[font=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma][size=14px]"Women can reduce their risk of breast cancer by maintaining a healthy weight, drinking less alcohol and being physically active, and it's not a bad idea to swap some red meat - which is linked to bowel(肠,内部) cancer - for white meat, beans or fish," he added.[/size][/font]
