Eating avocados may also lower the risk of heart disease. High levels of homocysteine is associated with a higher risk of heart disease
but the Vitamin b6 and the folic acid found in avocados can help regulate it. One seven-year study published in 2013 found that avocados were associated with a reduced risk of metabolic syndrome

6 Tips to Reduce Your Risk Following six diet guidelines can reduce your cancer risk researchers say.
and vegetables especially leafy greens to help reduce overall cancer risk. Most doctors agree. It is an incontrovertible fact that a plant-based diet lowers your risk of cancer
and heart disease said Dr. Paul Talalay a distinguished service professor at Johns hopkins university in Baltimore who was involved not in this study.
The reason fruits and vegetables help lower cancer risk is that they contain protective compounds such as the phytochemicals that Talalay discovered in broccoli in the 1990s that reduce the risk of several cancers
and as reported this June the toxic effects of the pollutant benzene. 2. Eat soy products to reduce both the risk and recurrence of breast cancer.
and heart disease. 3. Limit or avoid dairy products to reduce the risk of prostate cancer. Studies have linked dairy to prostate cancer
or avoid alcohol to reduce the risk of cancers of the mouth pharynx larynx esophagus colon rectum and breast.
The PCRM reports that one drink per week increases the risk of mouth pharynx and larynx cancers by 24 percent;
two to three drinks per day increase the risk of colorectal cancer by 21 percent.
As with the dairy recommendation the dangers depend on which studies you read. Mouth pharynx and larynx cancers are rare in nonsmokers
so a 24-percent risk increase isn't something to fret over. Also a drink a day seems to promote heart health.
5. Avoid red and processed meats to reduce the risk of cancers of the colon and rectum.
The broader issue she said is reducing consumption to reduce risk given your risk profile
and family history. 6. Avoid grilled fried and broiled meats to reduce the risk of cancers of the colon rectum breast prostate kidney and pancreas.

and vegetables a day reduces people's risk of dying a new study suggests. The study also found that fresh vegetables may be slightly more protective than fresh fruit
and canned fruit may actually increase the risk of death. Researchers analyzed information from more than 65000 people in England ages 35 and older who answered questions about their eating habits.
The findings held even after the researchers took into account factors that may affect people's risk of dying such as cigarette smoking body mass index and physical activity level.
Each daily serving of fresh vegetables was linked with a 16-percent reduction in a person's risk of dying
while each serving of fresh fruit was linked with a 4-percent reduction in risk of death.
However each serving of canned or frozen fruit increased the risk of death by 17 percent.
and vegetables were solely responsible for the reduced risk of death or that canned fruit increases the risk of death.
The study did not take into account people's total calorie intake or salt consumption which may affect the link.
and vegetables experience other factors that increase their risk of dying such as health conditions or stressful lives the researchers said.
