Dear Editor,
There are many types of nuts including walnuts, almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamias, peanuts, pecans, pine nuts, pistachios. Nut consumption is known to reduce the risk of obesity, diabetes mellitus, and cardiovascular disease [1]. Furthermore, dietary fiber is supplied by almonds and walnuts and oleic acid is provided by hazelnuts; both of these components are known to be cancer-protective [2,3]. Fadelu et al. [4] carried out a prospective, observational study of 826 eligible patients with stage III colon cancer who reported dietary intake on food frequency questionnaires while enrolled onto a randomized adjuvant chemotherapy trial. They concluded that diets with a higher consumption of nuts may be associated with a significantly reduced incidence of cancer recurrence and death in patients with stage III colon cancer after a median follow-up of 6.5 years. However, what remains uncertain is that which nut is potentially more effective in decreasing colon cancer recurrence and death. Lastly, it is important to know the potential mechanisms that nuts can inhibit colon cancer cells.
