Women have another reason to consider a Mediterranean diet.

Italian researchers say it may significantly lower their risk of uterine cancer.

They broke the diet down into nine elements and measured how closely a group of five thousand women stuck to them.

Those who regularly ate between seven and nine of the Mediterranean style food groups had a 57 percent reduced risk of uterine cancer.

A Mediterranean diet includes fruits, vegetables, grains, fish and limited amounts of red meat, dairy and alcohol.
