Brief description This research will explore dietary agents for their ability to regulate the damage to DNA that is responsible for causing bowel cancer. The plan is to identify a dietary approach that will effectively reduce the risk of colon cancer. The science will be tested in animal models followed by initial human experiments aimed at testing the relevance to humans.
