What about the role of flaxseeds in preventing breast cancer in the first place? See the previous video Flaxseeds & Breast Cancer Prevention (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/flaxseeds-breast-cancer-prevention/). In the next video Flaxseeds & Breast Cancer Survival: Clinical Evidence (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/flaxseeds-breast-cancer-survival-clinical-evidence/), I'll detail a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical trial in breast cancer patients where flaxseeds are actually put to the test.
