Cancers due to Obesity Affect The Poorest
ATLANTA (AP) – cancers stimulated by obesity, largely associated with rich countries are becoming more common in the developing world, according to new reports.
Obese people are considered a population at risk for many cancers, including colon and breast cancer. A separate report released Friday said that obesity rates around the world have doubled in the last three decades, especially in the West but also in most of the rest of the world.
“Unfortunately, changes in lifestyles, such as reduced physical activity, are making people less healthy and therefore prone to diseases like cancer,” said Dr. Eduardo Cazap, president of the International Union for the Control Cancer, in a statement released by the World Health Organization.
For decades, health officials have expressed concern about the impact of smoking-a habit common in industrialized countries in deaths from lung cancer in developing countries.

Further Benefits of Olive Oil
The benefits of olive oil are many and various orders. This food is applied in many cases, especially those related to beauty and skin rejuvenation, but its scope does not stop there. A study released over the past 15 and November 16 has indicated that olive oil has a direct action against obesity.
In fact the study does not speak of olive oil on time, but speaks of so-called monounsaturated oils, which are characterized by low in saturated fats, which avoids many problems associated with obesity and cardiovascular system. But within the monounsaturated olive oil is the one with lower concentration of fat.
