DESCRIPTION: Cholesterol appears to stimulate the growth of human breast cancer cells, which may explain why phytosterol-rich foods such as pumpkin seeds are associated with reduced breast cancer risk.

If cholesterol increases breast cancer risk, what about the use of cholesterol-lowering drugs? That’s the subject of my next video, Statin Cholesterol Drugs and Invasive Breast Cancer (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/statin-cholesterol-drugs-and-invasive-breast-cancer/).

Other foods I mentioned protective against breast cancer include:
• Broccoli (Broccoli vs. Breast Cancer Stem Cells https://nutritionfacts.org/video/broccoli-versus-breast-cancer-stem-cells/ and Breast Cancer Survival Vegetable https://nutritionfacts.org/video/breast-cancer-survival-vegetable/)
• Soy (Breast Cancer Survival https://nutritionfacts.org/video/breast-cancer-survival-and-soy/ and Soy and BRCA Breast Cancer Genes and Soy https://nutritionfacts.org/video/brca-breast-cancer-genes-and-soy/)
• Flax seeds (Flaxseeds & Breast Cancer Prevention https://nutritionfacts.org/video/flaxseeds-breast-cancer-prevention/)

Some I didn’t mention include:
• Nuts (Tree Nuts or Peanuts for Breast Cancer Prevention? https://nutritionfacts.org/video/tree-nuts-or-peanuts-for-breast-cancer-prevention/)
• Greens (Preventing Breast Cancer by Any Greens Necessary https://nutritionfacts.org/video/preventing-breast-cancer-by-any-greens-necessary/)
• Mushrooms (Breast Cancer vs. Mushrooms https://nutritionfacts.org/video/breast-cancer-vs-mushrooms/)
• Sea vegetables (Which Seaweed Is Most Protective Against Breast Cancer? https://nutritionfacts.org/video/which-seaweed-is-most-protective-against-breast-cancer/)
