LONDON (Reuters) - Keeping slim is one of the best ways of preventing cancer, as is avoiding excessive amounts of red meat and wine, a landmark study has revealed.
The World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) said the link between body fat and cancer is closer than generally realized.
It found convincing evidence of a link to six types of cancer, five more than in its last report, 10 years ago.
Among the new types are colorectal (bowel) and post-menopausal breast cancer.
Professor Michael Marmot, chair of the panel of 21 eminent scientists who compiled the report, said: "We are recommending that people aim to be as lean as possible within the healthy range, and that they avoid weight gain throughout adulthood."
The report, which selected 7,000 studies from a worldwide pool of 500,000 written since records began in the 1960s, includes five key findings.
They are that processed meats, such as ham and bacon, increase the risk of colorectal cancer, and should be eaten sparingly.
Another is the link between red meat and colorectal cancer, for which the evidence is stronger than ever. People should not eat more than 500g of cooked red meat a week -- or between 700g and 750g for "blue" or uncooked meat.
A further finding was the strongest evidence yet that alcohol is a cause of cancer. If people must drink, the report said, they should limit their intake to two units a day for a man or one for a woman. A unit is a half pint of beer or a small glass of wine.
The report recommended mothers breastfeed exclusively for the first six months after birth followed by complementary breastfeeding, after evidence showed breastfeeding protects the mother against breast cancer.
It did not recommend dietary supplements as prevention.
"This report is a real milestone in the fight against cancer, because its recommendations represent the most definitive advice on preventing cancer that has ever been available anywhere in the world," said Professor Martin Wiseman, project director of the report.
Scientists believe there are several reasons for the link between body fat and cancer.
One is the relationship between excess fat and the hormonal balance in the body.
Research has shown that fat cells release hormones such as estrogen, which increases the risk of breast cancer, while fat around the waist encourages the body to produce growth hormones, which can increase levels of risk.
Evidence of a link is most convincing for cancer of the esophagus, pancreas, colorectum, endometrium (womb), kidney and post-menopausal breast cancer.
The report makes 10 recommendations including 30 minutes of moderate activity a day, rising to 60 minutes; drinking water rather than sugary drinks; eating fruit, vegetables and fiber and limiting salt consumption.

| "Earth, the only planet with free choice in the Milky Way Galaxy" |
“.. A
billion years ago, they (Pleiadians)
went through a change and they went through a shift, and they had free choice.
Back then, they were the only planet that did in their time, and eventually
they went through a metamorphosis of consciousness. ”
“.. So
again, we tell you that the ones who came to help seed you approximately 100,000
to 200,000 Earth years ago were the Pleiadians who had gone into graduate
status and who had changed consciousness. They had become quantum with free
choice, and you have parts of their DNA within you. ..”
“..You're
surrounded by divine beings who keep you safe and will continue while this
planet of only free choice – the only one at the moment – makes its decision.
You're turning the corner of consciousness and they all know it, for they've
all been through it and they remember it. Oh dear ones, consciousness is
volatile! You've seen it change so slowly, but it's about to change faster.
It's not going to take generations and generations as in the past. Instead,
you're going to see real-time changes. Humans won't wait to have children for
them to grow up and have children. ..”

“.. In
time, the quantum factor will be discovered on this planet. When it is, it will
be highly controversial, and it's going to fly in the face of logic and 3D and
the way things work via the scientific method. The ramp-up to all this is
difficult. The old souls in front of me have signed on to work this new energy
and they've waded through lifetimes, just waiting for this. What would you do
as a scientist if the experiments before you had "a mind of their
own"? What would you think if magnetics, gravity and light could only be
assembled in a certain way that created healing and never a destructive
alignment? All this is going to redefine some of the basic forces in the
Universe. Intelligent design is only the first, and even today many astronomers
and physicists still think it's an anomaly.
That will
be the next largest discovery on the planet. It's been held back from you
because it takes a higher vibrating consciousness to create and understand it.
When any planet discovers a quantum energy and is able to use it, you could go
to that planet and know that you will meet high-consciousness entities. This
has never been given to you before that, for within the quantum factor contains
the secret of interplanetary travel using large, entangled states. There are
ways of doing things you never thought could happen. You can throw away your
rocket ships. You're on the edge of that.
..”
“… And so,
dear Human Being, you have the ability to start to return to an energy that you
thought you'd lost, where Human beings are allowed to live longer and it
doesn't destroy the environment. They don't overcrowd themselves because they
can control it through their minds instead of laws... and through wisdom.
Some day you'll meet the star seeds, your Pleiadian sisters and brothers. They're even here now, since they are quantum. You've got Pleiadian ancestors who live a very, very long time in a graduate situation in a planet that went through the test just like yours. And it developed a quantum factor. They have benevolence and they have quantum energy. That's how they get here instantly and return, and they'll never interrupt your free choice. That's also why they don't land and say hello. Instead, they sit and cheer on the sidelines for what you've finally done. They are waiting with you to celebrate the December solstice of 2012... the half way point of the 36 year shift you are in. …”
