...Contradictory evidence abounds: In a June paper published in Pediatrics, children who ate wheat before six months of age actually had lower allergy rates than those who avoided it. Some studies show C-section delivered babies to be more allergic; others, the opposite. Some evidence suggests homogenized peanut butter is the culprit, other studies point to an increased use of vegetable oils. Dr. Hugh Sampson, professor of pediatrics and immunology at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine and widely considered the top expert in the field, says: "It's all still speculative. The answer probably lies in multiple factors...
...particularly gratified by a new study of Asian-American women done by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). It looked at women who ate a lot of soy-based foods as children, adolescents and adults. The strongest and most consistent association was among women who ate the most soy-based foods from ages 5 to 11. They reduced their risk of developing hormone-fueled breast cancer 58%, compared with women who ate the least. The reduction for women who ate a lot of soy as adolescents and adults was 25%. Regular, moderate consumption of whole-soy foods (such as soy nuts...
...other piece of good news came out of a large population study of more than 22,000 U.S. physicians. It found that men who ate fish five or more times a week had a 40% lower risk of developing colorectal cancer than men who ate it less than once a week. I've long believed that the omega-3 fatty acids in oily fish inhibit the COX-2 enzyme that increases both inflammation and cell proliferation...
...news came in another large population study, this one of more than 90,000 nurses. A report published in the Archives of Internal Medicine found that the risk of estrogen- and progesterone-receptor-positive breast cancer increased most in those nurses who ate the most red meat. Women who ate more than 1 1/2 servings of red meat a day had nearly double the risk, compared with those who ate three or fewer servings a week. The authors offered several theories for what's behind the correlation. One possibility is that red meat delivers too much iron in a form...
Gretchen M. Salyer ’05 ate 2.73 pounds of Popeye’s favorite last night—and earned a World Wrestling Federation-style winner’s belt and one year of free meals at Harvard Square restaurant b.good. In winning the 3rd Annual Garlicky Greens Eating Contest, the former varsity coxswain for the Radcliffe women’s crew team defeated reigning champion John Pepper, a man significantly larger than she. Salyer got her start in competitive eating by winning a Krispy Kreme-eating contest during her junior year. “Garlicky greens...
