Abstract:
Cancer is a disease with high malignancy,easy invasion and metastasis,and poor prognosis,but effective prevention and intervention measures are helpful to control its occurrence and development,and reduce its burden.The causes of cancer are complex,including external exposures to environmental risk factors,host factors,genetic susceptibility and so on.In recent years,the relationships between diet,nutrients and cancer had obtained increasing attention from the public and epidemiologists.The prevalence and external causes of cancer,as well as the research progress in nutritional epidemiology of cancer are briefly introduced in this article.Particularly,the significance in diet and nutrition on cancer prevention and the challenges in current research are discussed,in order to provide references for diet and nutrition in primary cancer prevention and public health policy-making.
