Endometrial Cancer


Soya foods may also reduce the risk of endometrial cancer. A study of over 800 women from Shanghai with endometrial cancer found that the regular intake of soya foods was associated with a lower risk of endometrial cancer (Xu et al., 2004). Those who ate the most soya were 33 per cent less likely to get the disease than those eating the least.
