Abstract

Breast cancer is a major cause of death and disability among women in the United States. One in nine women will develop breast cancer at some point in their lives. Over the years, treatment modalities have improved, but mortality from breast cancer has changed little since 1930.1 This observation dictates a need for greater efforts toward disease prevention. One important new prevention strategy to reduce the incidence of breast cancer is dietary intervention.
