QUOTE FOR THURSDAY:

“Obesity was an independent predictor of recurrence.  We found that the more obese a man was, the greater the chances that his cancer would return after the surgery. The chance of recurrence for very obese patients is 70% higher than for others. That’s a very significant difference.”
