Ca(2+) — decreases lung cancer incidence
Evidence strength: limited.Finding“Dietary intakes of calcium and phosphorus were inversely associated with lung cancer risk; those in the highest quartile had 34% and 45% lower risk, respectively, than those in the lowest quartile (HR = 0.66; 95% CI: 0.48, 0.91; P for trend = 0.007 for calcium intake and HR = 0.55; 95% CI: 0.36, 0.85; P for trend = 0.02 for phosphorus intake) (Table 3).”
