New findings from the American Association for Cancer Research say that vitamins and calcium supplements could potentially decrease breast cancer. The effects do not happen over night, but happen over a long period of time. The calcium supplements help to improve the DNA repair mechanism, a biological process that can mutate and turn to cancer if interrupted.
The study consisted of 268 breast cancer patients and 457 healthy controls. Breast cancer risk dropped by 30% for those who took vitamin supplements and 40% for those who took calcium supplements.
The study author did not separate out which specific vitamins might be beneficial but suggested that the interactions of different vitamins together might account for the beneficial effect. Also one drawback of the study is that the authors did not measure women's actual vitamin levels, instead relying on responses to questionnaires.
