Breast Cancer
Frequently Asked Questions
30. What is the relationship between
lifestyle and breast cancer?
Some researchers are looking at diet as a possible risk factor for
breast cancer. Studies show that women in populations that consume
a high-fat diet are more likely to die of breast cancer than women
in populations that consume a low fat diet. But scientists still do
not know for sure if a diet low in fat will lower the risk of
breast cancer, or if any other specific dietary changes will
actually prevent cancer. (Answer continues on next
