Post-diagnosis dietary factors and survival after invasive breast cancer.
As little it is known about the effects of diet after breast cancer diagnosis on survival. Recently a study focused on post-diagnosis dietary factors and breast cancer in 4,441 women without a history of breast cancer recurrence. Several large studies have previously indicated a link between consumption of high amounts of trans fat and coronary heart disease, and possibly some other diseases (Bauer et al., Pediatr Nurs. 2009 ). Beasley et al suggested (2011) that that lower intake of saturated and trans fat in the post-diagnosis diet is associated with improved survival after breast cancer diagnosis.
