Diabetes and Cancer Breakthrough

This is certainly interesting news, worth looking more closely at the study results.

Diabetes and Cancer Breakthrough

"Poor-quality carbohydrate consumption (junk food, soft drinks, sweets), physical and emotional stress, and xeno-oestrogen exposure (pesticides, HRT, and the pill), act synergistically to increase intra-cellular oestradiol, which encourages fat deposition and obesity; inhibits insulin receptors to cause metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes; promotes benign prostatic hypertrophy; and triggers the carcinogenic mechanisms that cause breast cancer and prostate cancer."
