Experimental evidence using animal models and cultured cells has clearly linked dietary fat
to breast cancer. More than 150 studies using animal models of carcinogen-induced,
transplantable,“spontaneous” and metastatic breast cancer as well as in vitro investigations
employing cultured breast cancer cells provide an impressive array of support for the
conclusion that dietary fat influences breast cancer cell proliferation and tumorigenesis (1–
11).
