A higher body mass index (BMI) substantially increases the risk for the majority of cancers, the largest study of its kind suggests. There were large weight-related increases in risk for cancers of the gallbladder, kidney, and liver, and smaller increases in the risk for colon, cervical, thyroid, ovarian, and postmenopausal breast cancer, and for leukemia. The overall message is that obesity is a certain and avoidable cause of cancer. buff.ly/VzC8ES
