Abstract
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could recommend something as simple and safe as a daily vitamin to reduce the risk of cancer? Until now, we have had no definitive evidence to support such a recommendation. The Lappe et al trial, however, concluded that improving calcium and vitamin D nutritional status substantially reduces all-cancer risk in postmenopausal women.1 Will this single, relatively small study pass the test of time and be confirmed by future clinical trials? We think so.
