CHICAGO. Foods common to Western style diets may boost mutagens in feces and raise colon cancer risk, researcher Dr. William R. Bruce of the Ontario Cancer Institute said.

Harvard researcher Rothman reports a study of nearly 20,000 Boston Pill users found no increase in miscarriages or stillbirths and possibly fewer, but not a reason to take the Pill for that purpose. The study notes a near doubling of twin births if conception occurs within a month of stopping Pill use, especially after one to two years of use.
