you probbaly saw the study suggesting a low fat duet and aspirin can reduce the reoccurence of certain cancers. Maybe the study needs some more analysis.
Experts Debate Study on Fat, Breast Cancer - Yahoo! News
"However, the only women who benefited were those whose tumors were not helped to grow by estrogen. These women had 42 percent lower risk of recurrence if they ate low-fat diets, but they accounted for just 1 out of 5 women in the entire study — similar to breast cancer cases in the general population.
Results for the other 4 out of 5 women in the study did not reach statistical significance, meaning they could have occurred by chance alone — a point the
American Cancer Society noted in a statement posted on its Web site Monday."
