In cancer cells, major changes in gene expression increase glucose uptake to support their rapid growth. Unlike normal cells, which produce lactate only when oxygen is low, cancer cells convert much of the glucose to lactate even in the presence of adequate oxygen. This is known as the “Warburg Effect.”
The American Cancer Society have stated that "there is some evidence from human and lab studies that consuming traditional soy foods such as tofu may lower the risk of breast and prostate cancer, but overall the evidence is too limited to draw firm conclusions".
Pleomorphic liposarcomas (PLS), which account for 5% to 10% of all liposarcoma cases, [55] are fast-growing, usually large (>5 cm), and painless but highly malignant adipocyte tumors. [56] They occur primarily in individuals >50 years old [56] with a predominance in females. [45] PLS tumors are rarely found in children. [56]

The two classes reflect an important clinical difference. Compared with germinomatous tumors, nongerminomatous tumors tend to grow faster, have an earlier mean age at time of diagnosis (around 25 years versus 35 years, in the case of testicular cancers), and have a lower five-year survival rate. The survival rate for germinomatous tumors is ...

For example, there is a difference between a burger cooked at home versus a burger bought frozen from the grocery store versus a burger purchased from a fast-food restaurant. The three may vary ...
More than half of the effect from the diet is due to overnutrition (eating too much), rather than from eating too few vegetables or other healthful foods. [citation needed] Some specific foods are linked to specific cancers. A high-salt diet is linked to gastric cancer. [64] Aflatoxin B1, a frequent food contaminant, causes liver cancer. [64]
