Well, now, this is better. This says that for people like me who already
have breast cancer, eating a low-fat diet may lower the chance of
recurrence. Okay, <sigh> cancel the quiche, I'll have my usual 97%
fat-free processed turkey sandwich with fake butter. I feel virtuous again.

said.

You need to register to see it, I think, but NYT's registration is

Interesting article.
