FAT people are 10 per cent more likely to develop certain cancers, a study shows.<\/p>\n

Carrying extra weight boosts the risk of tumours of the bowel, kidney, pancreas and ovary, researchers found.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Shedding the pounds helped reduce the chances, and even more so if people also had heart disease, they said.<\/p>\n

Dr Helen Corker, of the World Cancer Research Fund, said: \u201cWe already know that obesity is an important risk factor for cancer.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut these striking findings show that the risk differs depending on whether people also have cardiovascular disease.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cMaintaining a healthy weight can offer even greater benefits for particular groups.\u201d<\/p>\n

Worldwide, experts predict one billion people will be obese by the end of the decade.<\/p>\n

Research has shown overweight people cost the NHS an extra \u00a313.7billion a year.<\/p>\n

Obesity is linked with a range of deadly conditions, including heart disease, stroke, diabetes and various forms of cancer.<\/p>\n

Having a body mass index (BMI) of more than 25 \u2014 meaning you are overweight \u2014 increases the risk of at least 13 types of cancer.<\/p>\n

These include breast cancer in postmenopausal women, bowel, liver, kidney, pancreatic and ovarian cancers.<\/p>\n

The latest study, published in BMC Medicine, looked at how people\u2019s weight impacted their risk of the disease, particularly if they already have heart disease or diabetes as well.<\/p>\n

Researchers tracked health data from more than 577,000 adults in Britain and other European countries for an average of around 11 years.<\/p>\n

More than 52,000 developed cancer over the course of the study.<\/p>\n

Overall, people with higher BMIs were found to be a tenth more likely to get obesity-related cancers even if they didn\u2019t have heart disease or diabetes.<\/p>\n

For people with either condition, every five-point increase in BMI boosted the risks of cancer by 11 per cent.<\/p>\n

The chances were especially high for people who were both obese and had heart disease, so they would benefit most from losing weight, researchers said.<\/p>\n

Dr Heinz Freisling, of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, said: \u201cFor so long, research has focused solely on how BMI affects cancer risk for the general population.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever this study has separated the risks for people with cardiovascular diseases \u2014 further showing the risk that living with overweight and obesity can have on cancer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a step in the right direction, but more research needs to be done to help provide further useful insights into how body weight influences cancer risk.\u201d<\/p>\n
