Another study confirms that consumption of cruciferous vegetables, the primary source of isothiocyanates and other glucosinolate derivatives that are known to induce phase II detoxifying enzymes, including glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), may reduce breast cancer risk. Cruciferous vegetable intake also may ameliorate the effects of the GSTP1 genotype. The GSTP1 Val/Val genotype has been found to be significantly associated with greater breast cancer risk.
