Certain plant foods are high in furanocoumarins. Test tube and animal studies suggest that
furanocoumarins may help prevent cancer. It is difficult to determine in humans if
furanocoumarins do prevent cancer because there isn't an objective way to tell who has eaten
these compounds. This study will develop a urine test to determine if an individual ate
foods that contain furanocoumarins.
