So far, not a lot of research has been done to specifically pinpoint what a high-carbohydrate diet's effects are on developing the most feared of all diseases: Cancer. Of course, it doesn't take a genius to see that along with our waistlines, rates of every major type of cancer have ballooned over the last 30 years, but the pointy-heads would argue that this is a mere association, and

not indicative of a causal link. In other words, what looks like a duck and quacks like a duck isn't necessarily a duck, according to the tunnel-visioned mainstream medical statisticians.Finally, though, there's some hard evidence to support what I've known for years: That a diet high in carbohydrates causes some types of cancer, and not just by virtue of the fact that such a diet makes people obese. As reported recently by the Associated Press, a Mexican study of nearly 200 women showed that those who consumed a high-carb diet (more than 60% of calories from carbohydrates) were MORE THAN TWICE AS LIKELY to develop breast cancer as women who adopted a lower-carb approach to eating.This study supports a similar body of research from last year that linked a greater risk of breast cancer among women to a diet high in sugar (especially soft drinks and desserts), the most damaging of all carbohydrates. Another study

from earlier this year suggested that a high-carb diet may raise the risk of colon cancer.According to the article, scientists who believe in the carb/cancer link hypothesize that the extra insulin released to process the simple carbs and sugars we ingest far too much of causes cells to divide and also leads to higher levels of estrogen in the blood. Both of these factors (cellular division and blood estrogen) can contribute to cancer. So what are we doing about it? Are we moving in the right direction, carb-wise? Not really, if today's obesity trend is any indication. And since "carb addiction" often starts when we're young, here's some not-so-encouraging news about what we're feeding our kids — and what health problems we're setting them up for in the future... **************************************************************GOOD NEWS: THE MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT IS FINALLY CATCHING ONThe bad news: You

nation struggles with a current epidemic of childhood obesity! (Gee, I wonder why?) Yes, the pizza and mac-and-cheese continue to be doled out in too-large portions to school children all across the U.S, despite an increasing number of parental requests for lower-carb options for their kids, according to a recent Associated Press story. Even the President of the American Society of Bariatric Physicians has come out in support of changing the school-food menu to something with a more moderate carbohydrate content.But does this really matter to the Fools on the Hill. Nope. The fatter we get from the foods they're recommending, the more money they rake in from taxes on the grain and sugar producers — and the drug-makers whose poisons doctors will prescribe to combat the effect that all those carbohydrates will have on us. If you've got a child or grandchild in school, do them a favor: Pack them a lunch every day of

something healthy — like tuna fish, egg salad, or a leftover pork chop and some fresh fruit...And don't give them any "lunch money" that could end up in a candy machine (or a bully's pocket).
