Ron, I'm not Marilyn but I have been reading cancer research (limited mostly 
to breast cancer) almost daily for over seven years and I cannot recall any 
legitimate abstracts re. the dangers of consuming fat.  When one filters out 
the "research" funded by various companies or vegan, vegetarian, PETA, etc. 
organizations, the only valid research I've seen pertain to the dangers of 
fat are those studies concerned w/ "fat" people...not the fat one consumes. 
And that sure doesn't include us !   That is not to say that such legit 
research doesn't exist re. other types of cancer.
