Fruit and vegetable consumption and squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus in Japan: The JPHC study
International Journal of Cancer, 08/12/08

Yamaji T et al. - An increase in consumption of total fruit and vegetables by 100 grams per day (g/day) was associated with an 11% decrease in the incidence of esophageal SCC (95% CI: 1-21%). In particular, a higher intake of cruciferous vegetables was associated with a significant decrease in risk. Stratified analyses revealed that the beneficial effect of fruits and vegetables was not able to completely offset the harmful effect of tobacco and alcohol.
