Flavonoids are a natural component of fruits, vegetables, red wine, and many dietary supplements that possess antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-carcinogenic properties. Those with the most flavonoids in their diet had a 47% less risk of developing non-Hodgkin lymphoma (lymphatic system related white blood cell cancers).

Researchers at Minnesota’s Mayo Clinic have found that people who have higher intakes of vitamin K have a lower risk of developing Non-Hodgkin lymphoma. Those in the top quarter of vitamin K-1, from diet and dietary supplements, had a 45% less risk for developing this cancer of immune cells.
