Who's at risk?

Dietary Fat and Alcohol
In addition, some medical research studies have found a link between breast cancer and the consumption of 1) excessive amounts of dietary fat and 2) even moderate amounts of alcohol. Factors that have not been shown to increase a woman's risk of getting breast cancer are breast implants, fibrocystic breasts, and cysts in the breasts.
