Until recently, most studies of low-carb diets have examined the effects on heart disease and cholesterol levels. But a new joint report from Mexico's Instituto Nacional de Salud Publica and the Harvard Medical School shows a significant relationship between diet and your chances of getting cancer.
Women who ate large amounts of carbohydrates were more than twice as likely to get breast cancer as those who ate less starch and sugar, the CDC-funded report announced. The results were published in the August 2004 issue of "Cancer Epidemiology (see "Word to the Wise," below), Biomarkers & Prevention."
