Cancers of the affluent – or those associated with “good living” - are on the increase across the United States. Those cancers include breast, prostate, liver, colon and pancreatic - among the most commonly seen - and all are heavily influenced by dietary factors – or, to be more precise, by poor eating habits. Those include the increased intake of processed foods, prime among them fats, carbohydrates and proteins. Evidence of this trend is seen in certain immigrant groups, who upon their arrival in the United States often switch to a “Western” diet with unhealthy results.
