Dairy product consumption and lung cancer risk: A prospective analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background & aim

Current evidence on prospective associations between dairy product, dairy fat and lactose intakes and lung cancer risk is limited and inconsistent. We conducted a prospective analysis of associations of lung cancer risk with dairy product intakes in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial (PLCO) cohort.

Methods
