D Vitamin Press Breast Cancer Risk

Any recent research suggests that increased consumption of vitamin D through food and Feed the display of sunlight associated with a decreasing risk of breast cancer. As reported the American Journal of Epidemiology, provision of D vitamin can press the presence of hormones receptor cancer, namely receptor estrogen (ER) and receptor progesteron (PR).

Receptor hormone can analogize as the ear that will listen to signals from the hormones. When the signal ordered to grow, the cells will develop cancer in the breast cells that contain receptor. Cancer will be called ER-positive (ER +) when the cause of development is the result of receptor for the hormone Estrogen. Meanwhile, when the cause is the development of receptor to progresteron hormone, called PR-positive (PR +).

Research conducted by comparing 758 people with breast cancer and 1,135 control participants who did not develop the disease. The researchers found that participants who Feed vitamin D to its high 26 percent decrease in risk of breast cancer ER and PR, and 21 percent decrease in the risk of tumor ER or PR. The study also suggests that vitamin D associated with a reduction in breast cancer risk regardless of whether the status ER or PR. D vitamin found in the type of food, such as fish oil, juice, cereals, and milk, and obtained by other means, such as the display of the sun.
