PROVIDENCE, RI —
Researchers from The Miriam Hospital have found that olive oil may offer another potential health benefit — it produces greater weight loss in breast cancer survivors compared to a more traditional low-fat diet.
The findings may be of significance to women with breast cancer, since excess weight at the time of diagnosis, or even moderate weight gain during cancer treatment, is associated with an increased risk of cancer recurrence, particularly in post-menopausal women.
