Dietary Polyphenol Intake and Gastric Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: Phenolic compound consumption may have a protective effect against gastric cancer (GC). Most GC studies focus on the flavonoids class, but results are conflicting and knowledge gaps remain for other classes and total polyphenol intake. This study aimed to assess the association between polyphenol intake (total, flavonoids, and other classes) and GC.
