Vitamin D may slow breast cancer
From Reuters:LONDON (Reuters) - High levels of vitamin D may help slow the progression of breast cancer, researchers suggested on Tuesday.
n a small study of women with the illness they found that patients with early breast cancer had higher levels of the vitamin than those with more advanced disease.
"Vitamin D levels are lower in women with advanced breast cancer than in early breast cancer," said Dr Carlo Palmieri, of Imperial College London.
"It lends support to the idea that vitamin D has a role in the progression of breast cancer," he told Reuters.
