I am not an MD, but I was obese some 10 years ago and gave up on high fructose soft drinks and lost 50 lbs.

Cancer can happen to anybody fat or skinny and I am not a statistician.

This is because poor liberals on food stamps are starving to death from obesity because of Republican meanness!

I know someone who has lost 60 lbs and counting by simply cutting out junk food, fast food, and soda.

Those carbs will get you every time.

“Being overweight or having obesity are associated with a higher risk of getting 13 types of cancer. These cancers make up 40% of all cancers diagnosed in the United States each year.

Adenocarcinoma of the esophagus.
Breast (in women who have gone through menopause).
Colon and rectum.
Uterus.
Gallbladder.
Upper stomach.
Kidneys.
Liver.
Ovaries.
Pancreas.
Thyroid.
Meningioma (a type of brain cancer).
Multiple myeloma.”

https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/risk-factors/obesity.html

Of course, many other cancers have no link to obesity.

How are they obesity linked? Just if they are obese when diagnosed? How can one know that their BMI actually caused or helped along their cancer?
