<p>In a study of 1,031 women diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer and 2,411 women who had been hospitalized for non-cancer related conditions, adjusting for other factors such as birth control pill use and family cancer history, it was found that a high intake of isoflavones cut ovarian cancer risk by 49 percent.</p>
<p>Women with the highest flavenol intake were 37 percent less likely to have ovarian cancer than women with the lowest flavenol intake.<a href="http://survivingyourwifescancer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/346959704_5c0e3193be_m7.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-85" title="346959704_5c0e3193be_m7" src="http://survivingyourwifescancer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/346959704_5c0e3193be_m7-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
<p>Other flavenoids showed no difference from the control group.</p>
<p>Isoflavones are found in tea and soy, and flavenols are found in cocoa, and other fruits and vegetables.  Having chocolate with ones tea is probably a good idea.</p>
