Study links obesity-driven fatty acids to breast cancer, warns against high-fat diets like keto

Their research, conducted in preclinical mouse models, suggests that breast cancer patients and survivors with obesity could benefit from lipid-lowering therapies—and that they should avoid high-fat weight loss regimens like ketogenic diets.
