Fat people 'are in denial about cancer': Half of us don't realise being overweight raises the risk of 10 different types of the disease

The Daily Mail reports:

Being overweight, which is defined as having a Body Mass Index of more than 25, increases the risk of developing 10 different cancers including bowel, breast, liver and pancreatic cancer.

It also raises the risk of kidney, womb, ovary, gallbladder and advanced prostate cancer.

Furthermore, the poll found 54 per cent of those questioned were not aware that a lack of physical activity can increase cancer risk.

No word yet on this story from Nancy Pelosi who claims everything is a pre-existing condition.
