Obese people often have increased blood levels of insulin and insulin-like growth factor-1 (igf-1). (this condition, known as hyperinsulinemia or insulin resistance, precedes the development of type 2 diabetes.) high levels of insulin and igf-1 may promote the development of colon, kidney, prostate, and endometrial cancers (29).
