Female rats whose mothers got methyl nutrients - methionine, choline, folate and vitamin B12 - before and after birth had fewer tumors, smaller tumor volume and longer survival after exposure to a carcinogen. The same nutrients slowed human breast cancer cells in culture.

Pregnant women's diet linked to risk of breast cancer in their daughters
Two mouse trials presented at the Era of Hope conference found daughters of mothers fed omega-3-rich canola oil in pregnancy had gene expression profiles tied to lower breast cancer risk, and daughters of mothers given methionine, choline, folate and B12 grew fewer, slower tumors.
Lifestyle
Low intake of calories and or methionine extends lifespan
In a 20-year Science study of monkeys, 80 percent of those fed 30 percent fewer calories were still alive against 50 percent eating freely, and the restricted animals were half as likely to develop cancer or cardiovascular disease. Whether the same holds in humans is unknown.
