In the study to investigate whether phytoestrogen intake is associated with reduced breast cancer risk, using a novel phytoestrogen database, posted in PubMed, researchers found that lignan intake was associated with a reduced breast cancer
risk (Q5 vs. Q1 MVOR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.65, 0.99); however, following
stratification by BMI, this reduction in risk was statistically
significant only among overweight (BMI > 25) women. Total
phytoestrogen intake was also associated with a risk reduction among
overweight women only. Among pre-menopausal women, total phytoestrogen
intake was associated with a significant reduction in breast cancer
risk among overweight women only (Q5 vs. Q1 MVOR: 0.51, 95% CI: 0.30,
0.87). Among post-menopausal women, no statistically significant
association was observed between breast cancer risk and isoflavones or lignans.
