TL;DR: Drinking coffee or sugar-sweetened carbonated soft drink consumption was not associated with colon cancer risk, however, a modest positive association with higher tea consumption is possible and requires further study.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fruit and vegetable consumption in the prevention of oesophageal and cardia cancers.
TL;DR: A very large number of individuals would need to increase their fruit and vegetable consumption moderately in order to prevent one oesophageal cancer per year, as moderate relative risk reductions translate into weak absolute risk reductions for oesophileal cancers in Sweden.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dietary calcium and vitamin D intake and risk of colorectal cancer: a prospective cohort study in women.
TL;DR: The data suggest that high calcium intake may lower colorectal cancer risk, and the inverse association may be strongest in relation to distal cancers and among older women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nutrients and gastric cancer risk. A population-based case-control study in Sweden

TL;DR: The strong negative association between supplementation with vitamin C and risk of gastric cancer supports the hypothesis of a protective role of this anti‐oxidant.
