OBESITY, CANCERAbstract
Obesity and cancer has been discussed in the first two parts. This part (Part III) deals with six cancers, namely those involving the breast, colorectal tissues, esophagus, stomach. gall bladder, and liver. Their relationship with obesity is discussed. Part IV will look at endometrial, ovarian, pancreatic, prostate, renal, thyroid and lung carcinomas. Meningioma and multiple myeloma are also discussed.
