  • Diet is a potential key factor in the development and progression of adenomas.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evidence linking diet to adenoma genesis and growth.
  • To summarize current human dietary intervention studies for colorectal adenomas.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of epidemiological and experimental evidence.
  • Analysis of human dietary intervention studies.

Main Results:

  • Evidence supports a significant role of diet in adenoma development.
  • Current intervention studies provide insights into dietary impacts.

Conclusions:

  • Dietary factors are important in the adenoma-carcinoma sequence.
  • Further research and dietary interventions are warranted for colorectal cancer prevention.
