Intake of fish and marine n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and risk of breast cancer: meta-analysis of data from 21 independent prospective cohort studies

Authors: Ju-Sheng Zheng, et al. / Journal: British Medical Journal, June 2013

Summary

Higher consumption of dietary marine n-3 PUFA is associated with a lower risk of breast cancer.
