Ovarian cancer is a deadly disease. It is referred to as the "silent killer" due to the late stage at which the disease is usually diagnosed, by which time the survival rate is very low and conventional treatment modalities such as surgery and chemotherapy are often ineffective. Progress to ...
Extensive COX-1 and COX-2 protein expression was found throughout the ovarian carcinoma. Our findings suggest that the flaxseed-mediated reduction in the severity of ovarian cancer in hens is correlated to the reduction in PGE2 in the ovaries of flaxseed-fed hens. These findings may provide the...

Our objective was to investigate the effect of flaxseed supplementation for one year on ovarian cancer and correlate its effects to expression of COX enzymes and concentrations of prostaglandins. White Leghorn hens were fed 10% flaxseed-enriched or standard diet for one year. The severity of ...
Hormone-sensitive cancers or conditions: Because flaxseed might act somewhat like the hormone estrogen, it might make hormone-sensitive conditions worse. Some of these conditions include breast andovarian cancer. Until more is known, avoid taking large amounts of flaxseed if you have one of these ...
For similar reasons, another study published in theJournal of Nutritionfound that the lignans in flaxseeds mayhelp protectagainst endometrial and ovarian cancer. 8. May help you manage your weight A 2017 systematic review published inObesity Reviewsconcludedthat flaxseed is a good choice for weight ...
FOR five years, University of Illinois researchers have been using the chicken as a model to study human ovarian cancer and have recently discovered that a diet enriched with flaxseed decreases the severity of ovarian cancer and increases survival inhens. Flaxseed is the richest plant source of al...

Regular consumption of flaxseed mayprotect the body from colon cancer, prostate cancer, and breast cancer. Omega-3 fatty acids prevent cancerous cells from latching onto healthy cells. If cancerous tumors attempt to form, the lignans contained in flaxseed stop the formation of new blood supply (...
"In hens fed flaxseed, we found that more tumors were confined to the ovary and they had less metastatic spread," she said. "This is an important finding as the metastases that accompany late-stage ovarian cancer are the main cause of death from this disease. If the cancer is found at ...
