Increase the consumption of fruits, vegetables and whole -- grain cereals. Consume smoked and charcoal-broile- d foods in moderation only. Drink alcoholic beverages only in moderation. According to AICR, these guidelines are consistent with good nutrition and adherence to them may also reduce the risk of developing cancer. The relationship between diet and cancer is being investigated by many cancer researchers, said Dr. T. Colin Campbell, the senior science advisor of AICR and an experienced researcher in the field of nutrition and cancer: The evidence of a link is sufficiently persuasive that the NAS has proposed interim dietary guidelines. We believe the American public needs to be aware of both the scientific research in this area and the findings that have been discovered so far, he said. The basis for the guidelines is scientific research that shows that a balanced nutrient intake achieved through the consumption of moderate amounts of a variety of foods and not through the use of vitamin and mineral supplements may inhibit the development of some chemically caused cancers. According to these guidelines, such nutrients and food constituents as Vitamins A, C,E, dietary fiber, beta carotene, and selenium have been shown potentially to inhibit cancer when consumed at levels found in a balanced diet. It is important to note that excessive consumption of certain of these substances, especially selenium, can be toxic. The guidelines also explain that while many people have reduced their consumption of saturated fat, they have not reduced total fat intake. Research has shown a link between total fat intake and the incidence of cancer, especially cancer of the breast, large bowel, and prostate. Research has also shown a link between excessive consumpsmoked and tion of charcoal-broile- d foods and cancer.
