Core Tip |
Calcium and vitamin D have been shown in epidemiological studies to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer and adenomas, but the evidence regarding their effect on sessile serrated adenomas/polyps (SSA/P) is controversial - some studies showing no effect and others showing some degree of risk reduction. Recently, a randomized controlled trial with calcium and vitamin D supplements was published, concluding that the relative risk of developing a SSA/P was increased in patients taking calcium and vitamin D/calcium. In this editorial we try to place these surprising results into context, describing the limitations of this and previous studies on this topic. |
