1 balance tables, you would think it would explain about 80
2 per cent of all cancers, but in fact we have already
3 pointed out that there are great discrepancies in food
4 balance tables and that it takes no account of food
5 wastage, for example. Now, we know that in developed
6 countries, if you visited the United States of America you
7 will see the enormous amounts of wastage of food in that
8 country. There is, in fact, good evidence to suggest that
9 fat intake in the United States has diminished over recent
10 years and yet their breast cancer incidence is increasing
11 still. So it is not just a straightforward ----
12
13 Q. Breast cancer does, presumably, take quite a long time to
14 develop?
15 A. Yes.
16
17 Q. That is another matter. A five-minute break -- I do not
18 know when you want to have it?
19
20 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Would you like it now? Have you finished
21 with that article?
22
23 MR. MORRIS: That article I have finished with, yes. Yes, we
24 could have the break now.
25
26 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I will come back at two minutes to by that
27 clock.

31 MR. MORRIS: If we go to the defendants' nutrition file, it is
32 the blue documents at the top. It should say "Nutrition"
33 on it. I do not know what the number is.
34
35 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is volume I.
36
37 MS. STEEL: No, it is the blue ones.
38
39 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Which document number is it?
40
41 MS. STEEL: I think it is bundle II. Yes, it is bundle II of
42 the blue ones.
43
44 MR. MORRIS: If we go to numbers 58 and 59?
45 A. Mine only goes to 39.
46
47 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Then I think -- does it not have 58 and 59
48 right at the back?
49
50 MR. MORRIS: It is our numbers 58 and 59.
51
52 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is bundle II.
53 A. Yes, which one did you say?
54
55 MR. MORRIS: Numbers 58 and 59. I will leave aside 58. 59
56 I want to concentrate on. Just go to number 59 to save
57 time. Does it start off with, is it, "Avoiding cancer,
58 the European Code"?
59 A. Yes.
