Dietary Fat, Eicosanoids and Breast Cancer Risk
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Low Fat diet, Low Fat high n3 diet, and 1 other intervention for Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 18 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The primary objective of this investigation is to determine whether diets designed to increase plasma n3 concentrations (a low fat diet, with or without n3 fatty acid enrichment), will favorably affect sex hormone distribution in women in a direction associated with reduced risk of sex hormone-mediated cancer development. Specifically, we hypothesize that an increased concentration of circulating n3 fatty acids will reduce the biochemical markers associated with increased risk for developing certain sex hormone mediated cancers such as breast cancer
