A study by Marshall University suggests that consuming 57 grams of walnuts daily for two weeks may significantly reduce tumor growth and breast cancer development.
Infact verdict: Mostly True (67/100).
The claim that consuming 57 grams of walnuts daily for about two weeks significantly suppresses tumor growth and the development of breast cancer is supported by a study from Marshall University.
