SEATTLE, Oct. 11, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Physician-Scientist Dr. Steven Quay, MD, PhD is calling for nutritional guidelines for adolescent girls to reduce processed and fast-food consumption during puberty to prevent future breast cancer. His recommendation is based on recent research showing a link between consumption of a particular set of chemicals produced by the high temperatures used to fry or grill foods that have a high level of sugars and the induction of pre-cancerous changes during pubertal breast development. While the study was in mice, similar changes can be seen in adolescent breast development. A video explaining the paper and the basis of Dr. Quay's recommendation can be found here: Breast cancer prevention video.
