Breast Cancer, Pink Ribbons and Mushrooms - What's the Connection?

The link between mushrooms and Breast Cancer has been reported by Dr. Shiuan Chen of the City of Hope Cancer Centre in Los Angeles. His team of scientists have identified anti-tumour elements in fresh mushrooms. Mushrooms contain Conjugated Linoleic Acid and CLA suppresses a natural substance in the body called aromatase.

By blocking aromatase, physicians can reduce the levels of circulating estrogen in post-menopausal women. That is important because, according to the Canadian Cancer Society, high levels of estrogen are associated with a higher risk of breast cancer.

White button, portabella, crimini and Shiitake mushrooms showed significant inhibitory effects with large mushrooms having the strongest activity.

Furthermore, there is an emerging body of science suggesting that higher intakes of Vitamin D may be protective against breast and other cancers, and mushrooms are the only fruit/vegetable with natural Vitamin D.
