Do alcoholic beverages, obesity and other nutritional factors modify the risk of familial colorectal cancer? A systematic review.

PURPOSE : Individuals with family history of colorectal cancer are at higher risk of colorectal cancer than the general population. Until now, guidelines for familial colorectal cancer risk have only pointed at early diagnosis efforts via screening tests and surveillance, and payed scarce or no attention to lowering exposure to modifiable risk factors, notably nutritional factors.[br/] METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of epidemiological studies investigating the associations between nutritional factors, family history of colorectal cancer, and colorectal cancer risk. From the 5312 abstracts identified until December 2016, 184 full text articles were examined for eligibility. Finally, 31 articles (21 from case-control studies, 9 from cohort studies and 1 from an intervention study) met inclusion criteria and were analyzed.[br/] RESULTS: Mainly, the combinations of family history of colorectal cancer and higher consumptions of alcoholic beverages, red or processed meat, or overweight/obesity increase the risk of colorectal cancer. Consistently, a strong increase is observed with the combinations of family history of colorectal cancer and unhealthy dietary patterns/lifestyles. Statistically significant interactions between these nutritional factors, family history of colorectal cancer and colorectal cancer risk are reported. Other data are inconclusive and additional prospective studies are needed. CONCLUSIONS: For the first time, our findings highlight that addressing high consumption of alcoholic beverages, red or processed meat, and overweight/obesity, and more largely the exposure to multiple unhealthy dietary/nutritional behaviors could offer new perspectives of prevention to individuals with family history of colorectal cancer. A better information of these patients and of health professionals on these nutritional modifiable risk factors is recommende

Comment passer du niveau de preuve aux recommandations de santé publique ?*

Nutrition, including diet, nutritional status and physical activity is important for public health because it is part of modifiable factors. Its effects on health are multiple and complex (gene interactions/nutrition, additive effects, multiplicative or antagonists) and sometimes difficult to study and to highlight. The relationship between a nutritional factor and a disease can be studied by different types of epidemiological or mechanistic studies which have both advantages and limits. Results from all these types of studies must be evaluated by expert committees to determine the level of evidence (convincing, probable, or limited), and exposure data for the population considered must be taken into account, to elaborate pertinent public health recommendations

Characteristics of Beverage Consumption Habits among a Large Sample of French Adults: Associations with Total Water and Energy Intakes

Background: Adequate hydration is a key factor for correct functioning of both cognitive and physical processes. In France, public health recommendations about adequate total water intake (TWI) only state that fluid intake should be sufficient, with particular attention paid to hydration for seniors, especially during heatwave periods. The objective of this study was to calculate the total amount of water coming from food and beverages and to analyse characteristics of consumption in participants from a large French national cohort. Methods: TWI, as well as contribution of food and beverages to TWI was assessed among 94,939 adult participants in the Nutrinet-Santé cohort (78% women, mean age 42.9 (SE 0.04)) using three 24-h dietary records at baseline. Statistical differences in water intakes across age groups, seasons and day of the week were assessed. Results: The mean TWI was 2.3 L (Standard Error SE 4.7) for men and 2.1 L (SE 2.4) for women. A majority of the sample did comply with the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) adequate intake recommendation, especially women. Mean total energy intake (EI) was 1884 kcal/day (SE 1.5) (2250 kcal/day (SE 3.6) for men and 1783 kcal/day (SE 1.5) for women). The contribution to the total EI from beverages was 8.3%. Water was the most consumed beverage, followed by hot beverages. The variety score, defined as the number of different categories of beverages consumed during the three 24-h records out of a maximum of 8, was positively correlated with TWI (r = 0.4); and with EI (r = 0.2), suggesting that beverage variety is an indicator of higher consumption of food and drinks. We found differences in beverage consumptions and water intakes according to age and seasonality. Conclusions: The present study gives an overview of the water intake characteristics in a large population of French adults. TWI was found to be globally in line with public health recommendations

Nitrites and nitrates from food additives and cancer risk: results from the NutriNet-Sante cohort

International audienceNitrates and nitrites occur naturally in water and soil and are commonly ingested from water and dietary sources. They are also frequently used as food additives mainly in processed meats. Experimental data consistently suggest their involvement in carcinogenesis but human data is still limited. The aim was to investigate the relationship between nitrate and nitrite intakes and the risk of cancer in a large prospective cohort with detailed and up-to-date dietary assessment. Overall, 101,056 adults from the French NutriNet-Santé cohort study (2009-ongoing) were included. Consumption of nitrites and nitrates was evaluated using repeated 24h dietary records, linked to a comprehensive food composition database which includes details of commercial names/brands of industrial products. Prospective associations between nitrite and nitrate exposures and the risk of cancer were assessed by multivariable Cox hazard models. During follow-up, 3311 first incident cancer cases were diagnosed. Compared with non-consumers, higher consumers of nitrates as food additives had higher risk of breast cancer (HR = 1.24 (1.03-1.48), P = 0.02); this was more specifically observed for potassium nitrate e252, P = 0.01). Higher consumers of nitrites as food additives, and specifically for sodium nitrite (e250), had a higher risk of prostate cancer (HR = 1.58 (1.14-2.18), P = 0.008 and HR = 1.62 (1.17-2.25), P = 0.004, respectively). No significant association was observed for nitrates and nitrites from natural sources. In this large prospective cohort, nitrates as food additives were positively associated with breast cancer risk and nitrites as food additives were positively associated with prostate cancer risk. While these results need confirmation in other large-scale prospective studies, they provide new insights in a context of lively debate around the ban of nitrite additives in food products
