title: The role of dietary fat in breast cancer.
abstract: Studies on experimental animals have generally supported a role for dietary fat in mammary cancer, but epidemiological studies have given conflicting results. The effects of dietary fat in animals may be due to its high energy density or to other specific effects, and may have relevance for human breast cancer.
