That's funny, I watch DR Phil and he never has discussed risk factors for cancer, so you are telling a story. You are 27% more likely to get fatter though.

Estrogen is a major contributor to breast cancer. If you eat more calories that you burn, then you will gain weight. Estrogen levels in your body will increase. You will also be more prone to high blood sugar, high cholesterol, which in turn increases your chances of diabetes, heart disease, and yes, even cancer.

Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women. I have never heard however that eating fries is a contributing factor. Here is a link to a fact sheet which talks about all of the possible risk factors and signs: http://www.nowwhat.org.au/info/factsheets/breast-cancer I hope you find this information helpful.
