B-Vitamin Intake from Diet and Supplements and Breast Cancer Risk in Middle-Aged Women: Results from the Prospective NutriNet-Santé Cohort

Abstract: Experimental studies suggest a protective effect of B-vitamins on breast cancer risk, potentially modulated by alcohol intake. However, epidemiological studies are limited, especially regarding non-folate B-vitamins. Furthermore, few studies included quantitative assessment of supplemental intake. This prospective study aimed to investigate the associations between intakes of B-vitamins (dietary, supplemental, total) and breast cancer risk. 27,853 women aged ≥45 years from the NutriNet-Santé cohort (2009–2016)… Show more

“…Vitamin D is important in many physiological processes, is predominantly obtained through UVB radiation, and has been ascribed an important role in calcium homeostasis, bone health, and anti-cancer activity [118]. Some research has been published documenting a protective role of vitamin D against breast cancer [119, 120]. Moreover, higher levels of vitamin D may be associated with improved survival [121].…”

“…Among the vitamins and minerals, only carotenoids, folate, calcium, vitamin D, lycopene, and vitamin C have been associated with a lower risk of breast cancer (World Cancer Research Fund Panel (Potter JD Chair), 1997;Dorgan et al, 1998;Hulten et al 2001;Sato et al, 2002;Egnell et al, 2017). Although, the vitamins intake was statistically significant between the groups in our study, our patients and controls were not taking enough doses to be effective as regular use of such micronutrients after food is alien to our community.…”

“…Analyses of prospective studies suggest that women with low folate intakes and greater alcohol consumption ran a greater risk for breast cancer than non-drinkers with normal folate intakes (Sellers et al, 2002;Zhang et al, 1999). In a studies involving a large cohort of normal women taking vitamin A, B, C and E supplements, followed-up for 2 decades, it was discovered that taking large doses of thiamine and vitamins C and E did reduce the risk of breast cancer but low intake of vitamin A increased the risk of breast cancer (Egnell et al, 2017;Hunter et al, 1993).…”

“…However, since those studies mainly focused on elucidating clinical predictors of HCC, whether lifestyle habits including smoking and dietary factors affect progression of liver disease after SVR has remained unclear. In addition, as a dietary factor, while vitamin B intake has been reported to have protective effects against the development of cancers at other sites such as breast cancer [18] and colorectal cancer [19], the association with HCC remains unclear. The present study thus aimed to clarify associations between lifestyle habits and liver disease progression using a database of chronic HCV patients established in 2005 and their follow-up data until 2017.…”
