In February, headlines confirmed“Low-Fat Diet Does Not Cut Health Risks.”Data from the Women's Health Initiative(WHI)study concluded that a low-fat diet did not reduce the risk of breast cancer.Some women said,“Why bother?There's nothing I can do.”
That concerns me.In 30 years of research, I've seen what a difference lifestyle changes can make.The problem with the WHI study was that most of the women didn't change their diets very much.But those who achieved the greatest reduction in fat intake did have a decreased risk.
Now comes another study and more confusion.In July, findings from the Women's Healthy Eating and Living(WHEL)study were released.Some 1, 500 women previously treated for early-stage breast cancer, were asked to cut fat from 15% to 20% of their calories and to eat more fruit and vegetables.
But they reported eating more fruit at the beginning of the study than at the end.And on average their fat intake rose, from 28.5% of calories to 28.9%.However, women who consumed less than 23.8% of calories from fat did have a lower risk of breast cancer than those who got more than 33.4%.
Other studies have also found that diet can have a great effect on cancer risk.In Yale Health(YH)study, breast cancer survivors who lowered their fat intake to 20%(about 33 grams a day)cut their hidden risk by 24% after five years, compared with those who ate 51 grams of fat a day.An NIH-AARP study concluded,“Dietary fat intake was directly associated with the risk of above-50-aged breast cancer.”The researchers found a direct link between a high fat intake among above-50-aged women and breast cancer.In the Harvard Nurses' Health(HNH)study, mostly under-50-aged women who ate more of animal fat had a higher risk of breast cancer.
Bottom line:when you stick to a low-fat, healthy diet, you will not only feel better; you really can lower your risk of cancer.
