Breast cancer risk nearly halved by frequent miso soup intake
TOKYO (AFP) - The risk of developing breast cancer was nearly halved among Japanese women who had miso soup at least three times a day compared with those who had one or less bowl of the traditional soya-based dish per day.
MMMM. Miso Soup.
Miso is pureed steamed soybeans, mixed with salt and other fermenting agents.
Sorry. Even that unappetizing description can't knock the remembered smell of good miso soup out of my nose right now...
Researchers also believe frequent miso soup consumption may reduce the risk of prostate cancer (news - web sites) among men, Yamamoto said.
Yeah...That's right. I'll eat all that miso soup to save my prostate!
But Yamamoto cautioned that miso is no miracle food, as it contains a lot of salt, which can cause stomach cancer and high blood pressure, among other diseases.
There's always some #$@*ing catch isn't there!? I'll just pretend I didn't read that part...
