Can high protein diet cause high risk of cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Cancer: Not to my knowledge. What does your doctor say? Is there cancer in your family? If all is OK keep doing what you eat. If not please discuss with your doctor to confirm that your risk of cancer is low or otherwise. Don't fret something that is not there.
