Abstract
This umbrella review of meta-analyses of observational studies assesses the association between food/nutrient intake and cancer risk across 11 anatomical sites. The findings suggest that only a few food/nutrient and cancer associations are supported by strong or highly suggestive meta-analytic evidence, and further research is unlikely to significantly alter these conclusions. Key associations include a positive link between alcohol consumption and several cancers, and inverse associations between certain foods (dairy, whole grains) and colorectal cancer risk.
