Cancer breakthrough: High-fat diet causes aggressive disease to spread


CANCER spread is increased by a high-fat diet and can be caused by a cancer-spreading protein, experts have revealed.

The report, which has been hailed as a ‘game-changer’ shows eating fatty food can cause cause aggressive cancer to spread - a process called metastasis.

During the research, mice were given a high fat diet, including palmitic acid - a major component of palm oil which is found in lots of household products.

A study, which was partly funded by UK charity Worldwide Cancer Research, has identified for the first time a specific protein called CD36 on cancer cells which have the ability to spread.

CD36, found in the cell membranes of tumour cells, is responsible for taking up fatty acids - which distinguishes it from other tumour cells.

Dont forget, the article is talking about how cancer spreads.... not so much about curing it.

No, sorry Seed. I didn't report you. It;s just that your thread title (Cancer breakthrough: High-fat diet causes)

...reads like a spam title.

OK. Yes the title could have been better I guess, I usually just copy/paste the articles title... but the title box  doesnt like a long title and as seen, crops the sentences

No, we can't modify thread titles at all (only mods can do that), we can only edit thread content for an hour.

No matter, after this, we know what you mean. :)
