Carol,

Recommendations for the Primary Prevention of Cancer, the report released by
the Ontario Task Force on the Primary Prevention of Cancer in 1995, is a good
starting point. The report includes summaries of the literature linking the
incidence of cancer to diet and physical activity as well as recommendations
for addressing these relationships.

I would imagine that the CCS has copies of the report. If not, additional
copies are available through the Ontario government bookstore.

Regards,

Brian Hyndman
