Essay / Research Paper Abstract
5 pages in length. Proper nutrition is, quite literally, the lifeblood of existence. Provide the body with the appropriate food sources and the body will respond by remaining healthy and full of energy; inundate it with poor choices or an overabundance of any given food category and it will rebel the only way it knows how: with disease. Therefore, the phrase 'you are what you eat' is not merely a meaningless cliché; instead, it reflects the various eating patterns found in any given culture and the corresponding health issues directly associated with such dietary choices. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

incidence of breast, prostate, colon, uterus, kidney and pancreas cancer, but it also sets the stage for myriad other illnesses that are just as detrimental on the immune system.
Studies have long shown the connection between the level of total dietary fat and the rate of occurrence of such conditions as lipidemia (excess
lipids in the blood) and various cancers, with specific relation to the colon and breast. As would seem logical, a reduction of fats that pose this problem has been
