Abstract

The article focuses on the study which conducted by the researchers at the University of Leeds, England on the relation of meat consumption and the risk of breast cancer. The study found out that post-menopausal women have the higher risk of cancer due to the higher ratings of meat consumption compared with non-meat eaters. The author asserts that the increase of cancer risk is the result of the fat content of the processed meat.
