It is more than a buzzword. It is just a phenomenon right now.

The keto diet and breast cancer do the two really mix all that well.

They don't. Eating a diet high in fat and cholesterol and low in complex carbohydrates

is actually building up the disease toward the life's biggest killers.

Well, hello there and welcome to the Exam Room podcast.

Brought to you by the Physicians Committee.

Hi, I am the Weight Loss Champion Chuck Carroll.

Thank you so very much for giving the show a listen or a view or a download wherever

it is in the world that you are. We appreciate the fact that you are here.

The keto and the paleo diet. Are there any more popular diets on the market right now?

It's hard to argue that there would be as much as I love a good plant-based diet.

Something tells me that there may be more people looking at keto and paleo than at plants.

But as you heard Dr. Funks say at the top of the show with those low-carb and high-fat diets,

that may not be the best idea when it comes to your risk of breast cancer.

And so today we are going to go in depth on the science behind that hypothesis.

We're going to learn more about the connection between diet and breast cancer.

And by the way, that is the first step in our Let's Beat Breast Cancer campaign.

And so this is part two of our Let's Beat Breast Cancer series with Dr. Funks.

And so on the show today, you'll also hear the cancer rates among meat eaters

and how that compares to the rates among vegans and vegetarians.

And we'll also be dipping into the dairy arena and learning about the dairy and cancer connection.

Dr. Funk, you know, she is steeped in science.
