New Research into Causes of Breast CancerFriday 18 July 2003
Women who eat a high fat diet are twice as likely to develop breast cancer according to a new study published today in the Lancet.

Experts from the Medical Research Council researched food diaries kept by 13,000 women from Norfolk.
Dr Sheila Bingham from the Dunn Nutrition Unit in Cambridge is one of the authors of the report and joins Martha to explain their findings.
