Several hypotheses Calcium reduces cell proliferation and induces differentiation in mammary glands. High calcium intake decreases fat induced epithelial hypoproliferation of mammary gland and chemically induced carcinogenesis. Breast density is positively associated with breastcancer. Dietary calcium intake reduces the breast density. High calcium intake is associated with a reduced risk of benign proliferative epithelial disorders which are thought to be precursors of breastcancer. Vitamin D metabolites 25 OH D, 1, 25 OH 2 D promote cellular differentiation and it is important for chemoprevention. Low circulating levels of 25 OH D in adolescence may be an important predisposing factor for breastcancer risk in later life. So far the scientists are in search to elucidate the actual mechanism and role of calcium and vitamin D in breastcancer prevention.
