Women who ate soy regularly as children have a lower risk of breast cancer, American researchers report. And men who eat fish several times a week have a lower risk of colon cancer, a second team of researchers have told the American Association for Cancer Research.
The studies add to a growing body of evidence about the role of diet in cancer. Cancer experts now believe that up to two-thirds of all cancers come from lifestyle factors such as smoking, diet and lack of exercise.
The US National Cancer Institute and researchers at the University of Hawaii found that women who ate the most soy-based foods, such as tofu and miso, when aged 5 to 11, reduced their risk of developing breast cancer by 58 per cent. It was not clear how soy might prevent cancer, though compounds in soy called isoflavones have estrogen- like effects.
A second study showed that men who ate fish at least five times a week had a 40 per cent lower risk of developing colorectal cancer compared with men who ate fish less than once a week.
Many kinds of fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which interfere with the cyclooxygenase-2 or COX-2 enzyme. COX-2 affects inflammation, which may play a role in tumour growth.

Fish Soup with Sour Vegi(酸菜魚 suan1 cai4 yu2)is one of unspicy Sichuan dish.The soup tastes great.
MBARI researchers Bruce Robison and Kim Reisenbichler used video taken by unmanned, undersea robots called remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to study barreleye fish in the deep waters just offshore of Central California. At depths of 600 to 800 meters (2,000 to 2,600 feet) below the surface, the ROV cameras typically showed these fish hanging motionless in the water, their eyes glowing a vivid green in the ROV's bright lights. The ROV video also revealed a previously undescribed feature of these fish--its eyes are surrounded by a transparent, fluid-filled shield that covers the top of the fish's head.
This video is narrated by senior scientist Bruce Robison.

What a huge fish!The "Red Sea Bream" was caught in Japan.
This is not a fairy-tale's fish.The fish is true,and it blew me away.That is the coolest fish ever!
The common name for the fish is "barreleyes." Its formal name is Macropinna microstoma,also known as spookfish.It has tubular eyes and a see-through head.The fish's eyes can actually rotate within its "skull,"so the transparency allows the wary swimmer to keep a literal eye on happenings above it,as well as to the sides and directly in front.

When remotely operated vehicles approached the fish, its eyes glowed a vivid green shade in the bright lights of the ROVs.Watch [video]
