A team of Cornell University researchers has found that apples are a key to keeping breast cancer at bay.

The team fed apples to rats over a six-week period, and the more apples the rats ate, the less likely they were to develop cancer. Rats that ate the human equivalent to six apples per day saw a 44 percent cancer rate reduction.

The lead researcher attributes the cancer risk reduction to antioxidants found in the fruit. Those chemicals have been shown in other studies to slow the growth of a number of types of cancer cells.

"Our findings suggest that consumers may gain more significant health benefits by eating more fruits and vegetables and whole grain foods than in consuming expensive dietary supplements, which do not contain the same array of balanced, complex components, the lead researcher said.
