Assessment of fat intake in retrospective epidemiological studies

S Franceschi. Eur J Clin Nutr. 1993 Sep.

Abstract

The evidence on the positive association between fat intake and the risk of several cancers, including cancer of the breast, digestive tract and female genital tract, is substantial. Further, the interpretation of some null associations is hampered by various difficulties in the evaluation of the fat and cancer link.
