A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes and No: Obesity can lead to cancer, is what current studies show. That means one is probably safe from that risk factor if she eats a lot but works off all her excess caloric intake and thus does not get obese. The NIH says one source reported that in 2012 in the United States, about 28,000 new cases of cancer in men and 72,000 in women were due to being overweight or obese.
