The long running Women's Health Initiative study results are in and they are creating a stir in the media. The study results found that women who switched to a low-fat diet later in life did not see a reduced risk of breast cancer, colorectal cancer or heart disease. The largest study of its kind ran 8 years and included 48,835 women over 50 who were randomly chosen to adopt either a low-fat diet or keep eating as normal.

While the results are a bit unexpected, they do illustrate that the link between diet and health is complicated. Not sure what to think? Read the expert's comments regarding the study results.
