folic acid — no detected effect on lung cancer incidence
Evidence strength: moderate.FindingNull result“When we further investigated natural dietary folate (“food folate”) and synthetic folic acid (“food folic acid”) intakes from foods separately (Table 4), neither of them were associated with lung cancer risk (food folate: HR=1.00, 95% CI=0.84–1.19, P-trend=0.79; food folic acid: HR=1.09, 95% CI=0.91–1.30, P-trend=0.44).”
