Fish consumption doesn't reduce the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma
Creating more room for fish in our diet may have no impact on our odds of developing hepatocellular (liver) carcinoma.
This meta-analysis evaluated the hypothesis that regular intake of fish may exert a protective effect against hepatocellular (liver) carcinoma. A total of 12 studies that examined 1,071,458 persons and 2,627 patients with liver were included in this meta-analysis.
Researchers noticed that habitual consumption of fish had no effect on liver cancer risk. Evidence from this study further affirmed that eating fish regularly does not protect an individual from hepatocellular carcinoma.
