Abstract

Cancer Incidence Cancer Risk Gastric Cardia Lactase Persistence Minority Population
This article describes differences in patterns of diet-related cancers among racial and ethnic groups. The objective is to demonstrate the potential insights about the possible role of diet in cancer etiology that might be gained from appropriately designed racial and ethnic comparisons. The examples used relate to racial and ethnic groups within the United States, although the issues are also relevant internationally. A comprehensive consideration of racial/ethnic differences in cancer occurrence from a global perspective has been published elsewhere.1
