increased consumption of saturated fat and obesity are linked with increased risk of prostate cancer progression

So first of all they need to control the study better to figure out if it is saturated fat -or- obesity -or- both. Or else as you were explaining if they narrowed it down to 60% saturated fat diets then this was a poorly written summary.

I don't know how one can consume a consistent diet of 60% saturated fats unless ordered to by scientists. And as you said, the effects could be neutralized by dietary modifications.

I am on a low carb diet for the last 8 or 10 weeks, but I also don't eat a lot of saturated fats. And I dropped about 20 lbs of "tire" which was annoying me. I wasn't obese but I did add some weight and am taller than average. Next month I will switch it up and add in more fruits because I love summer fruits. Mostly went on the low carb diet to get my summer swimsuit body back :-)

Also to the best of my knowledge I don’t have PC, so I don’t think I need to worry about PC disease progression at this point.
