A medical study of 28 4,000 men and women showed that the more fruits the adults had eaten when they were 29 the less likely they were to suffer from lung, bowel and breast cancer. 'This study shows that childhood fruit consumption may have a long term 30 effect on cancer risk in adulthood,' Dr. Maria Maynard of the Medical Research Council in London said. All of the adults in the study had filled in a food 31 during the 1930s for a research study looking into the eating habits of families in 32 and urban areas of England and Scotland. Maynard and her colleagues studied the medical records of the group up to July 2000, by which time 483 cases of cancer had been 33 . In addition to fewer cases of cancer, a high consumption of fruit was 34 with a lower death rate from all causes. Fruits are loaded with antioxidants, vitamins and other nutrients, which can help to prevent genetic 35 that can lead to the development of cancer.
