Eating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains is a good way to reduce the overall risk of developing cancer. By eating eggs regularly as part of a balanced anti-cancer diet, women can minimize their likelihood of getting breast cancer. Eggs are helpful for preventing breast cancer -- choline appears to have a protective effect, for one. Other studies report women who eat two or fewer eggs weekly have a slightly higher overall risk of developing breast cancer than women who consume them more regularly.
