## Abstract Experimental studies suggest detrimental effects of ω‐6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), and beneficial effects of ω‐3 PUFAs on mammary carcinogenesis, possibly in interaction with antioxidants. However, PUFA food sources are diverse in human diets and few epidemiologic studies have
Ecological and case-control studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between consumption of fat and the risk of prostate cancer. Two recent human studies have focused on a-linolenic acid as a risk factor for prostate cancer. Animal experiments have shown that dietary v-6 polyunsaturated fatt
