Brief Summary

Breast cancer is among the most common types of cancer in the world. Factors such as age, reproduction, nutrition, hormonal, and lifestyle factors also play a role in the etiology of breast cancer. Nutrition can affect cancer metabolism at stages such as carcinogen metabolism, cell, and host defense, cell differentiation, and tumor growth. When investigating nutrition and breast cancer risk, it is important to evaluate the preparation and cooking processes applied to foods. Advanced glycation end products (AGE) are formed as a result of heat treatment applied to foods. There are studies showing that AGEs increase inflammation and oxidative stress in the organism. It is aimed to compare the dietary AGE intake and serum levels of AGE participants with breast cancer and healthy participants and to examine the relationship with serum inflammatory, oxidative stress, DNA damage, and total antioxidant capacity. Patients with breast cancer will be evaluated before surgery, before chemotherapy, and in the sixth and twelfth months after starting chemotherapy. The amount the dietary AGE intake, serum markers, nutritional status, and changes in quality of life will be determined.
