That's very interesting.Allergies can be one of the factors of preventing cancer. I bet everyone would think allergies would be the last thing in mind their minds to prevent cancer. But it's probably only some certain allergies because other students in Cornell found that more cancer patients suffered from allergies.
However, recent research published in The Quarterly Review of Biology has strongly suggested that allergies have an important role to play - protection against toxic substances which cause certain types of cancer.
