Chemoprevention of aberrant crypt foci in the colon of rats by dietary onion [PDF]
, 2007 Onion intake might reduce the risk of colorectal cancer, according to epidemiology. However, Femia showed in 2003 that diets with a 20% onion intake increase carcinogenesis in rats. We speculated this dose was too high.

Genetic polymorphisms and metabolism of endocrine disruptors in cancer susceptibility
Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2002 Epidemiological studies have estimated that approximately 80% of all cancers are related to environmental factors. Individual cancer susceptibility can be the result of several host factors, including differences in metabolism, DNA repair, altered ...
