A 20-year study found that women who ate an abundance of whole fruit during adolescence had about a 25 percent lower risk of breast cancer in middle age. While it’s not clear that the fruit itself did the trick — it could just be that women who eat lots of fruit tend to practice other healthy, cancer-mitigating behaviors — the findings do “fit with other research suggesting that a wide variety of plant foods, including veggies, fruits, and whole grains, protect against breast cancer,” according to Cleveland Clinic Wellness.

In less merry news: Another study determined that women who consumed two extra alcoholic drinks per day for five years showed a 30 percent higher risk for breast cancer. And that’s also in keeping with previous research linking drinking to cancer. So enjoy your libations in moderation!
