Diet and risk of kidney cancer

A pooled analysis reported that people eating 600g/day or more of fruit and vegetables, compared with those eating less than 200g/day, had a 22% reduction in risk of renal cell cancer.

When fruit and vegetables were examined separately, there was a reduction in risk with higher intake of fruits only.

Two cohort studies show a reduced risk of renal cell carcinoma with higher intake of root vegetables, and higher beta-carotene intake was shown to reduce the risk in a pooled analysis.
