10% rise breast cancer rates (and heading up)
 
Excessive intake of omega six and falling omega three as a primary cause is my continued no 1 guess as a primary causal factor for rising rates (along with environmental factors lifestyle etc).

Omega six is the essential fuel for the eicosanoid omega six pathway.

I have very vague impressions that I have seen press reports poorer than avergae diet in Scotaland in terms of processed food etc. but would have to check.

Though provoking no matter what the cause.

Linda McCartney
 
Yes, interesting reading. It make sense that women are having less babies and having them later in life and eating poorly is certainly a factor. Linda McCartney had 4 children, was a vegetarian, was active, trim. Why did she get and die from breast cancer??? Makes you wonder!!.
