ISLAMABAD, Sep 16 (APP): Orange could prove to be crucial in the
prevention of cancer.
In a forthcoming review article from Nutrition and Cancer: researchers
reviewed available evidence that links orange juice with cancer chemoprevention.
Despite its potential toxicity (if taken in excess), orange juice has
many potential positive effects when it comes to cancer, particularly because it is high in anti-oxidants, Radio Pakistan reported on Monday.
Evidence from previous studies has indicated that orange juice can
reduce the risk of leukemia in children, as well as aid in chemoprevention against mammary, hepatic, and colon cancers.
