2 Most people who are reviewing these kind of studies, such
3 as in this case dietary fat and oestrogen, will point out
4 these conflicts, but there is virtually no studies that
5 I know that high fat intake is actually going to decrease
6 ordinary oestrogen levels. Do you see my point.
7
8 Q. Yes, I do see your point entirely?
9 A. So that is why they can make a statement like this and
10 then lead on to this rather generic conclusion that they
11 make to defend a very conservative position. It is not
12 proper; it is not logical.
13
14 Q. Can I try another conservative or timid-- use which word
15 you like, conclusion or recommendation. I am sorry about
16 this, but it means you would not mind putting that little
17 grey book on the side for the moment and taking up the
18 orange one numbered 4. Turn if you will, I hope it is
19 there, to the last tab. It should be number 25.

21 MR. JUSTICE BELL: The WHO report is now 26.
22
23 MR. RAMPTON: It is 26. I am sorry, Professor, that is my
24 fault; 26 is what I was looking for.
25
26 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Right at the very back of the bundle. You
27 should have a divider 26 with a WHO report.
28
29 MR. RAMPTON: Is it called Diet Nutrition and the Prevention of
30 Chronic Diseases?
31
32 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is not there. It is a very thick report?
33 A. I think I do have it. It is just not labelled that
34 way.
35
36 MR. RAMPTON: I have a spare one.
37
38 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Use the spare one.
39
40 MR. RAMPTON: If it has marks on, I am sure you will ----
41 A. If you tell me which page, I think I do have.
42
43 MR. JUSTICE BELL: It is about three-quarters of an inch thick.
44
45 MR. RAMPTON: The pages I want are missing from my spare. I am
46 sorry, my Lord, but mine is defective. The pages, my Lord,
47 I want are pages 91 and 92?
48 A. I do not have that, I am sorry.
49
50 Q. Can I tell, it will not take long.
51
52 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Just borrow mine for the moment.
53
54 MS. STEEL: You can borrow this one if you want.
55
56 MR. RAMPTON: There are two very short passages. (Handed)

58 For identification, Professor, this is a World Health
59 Organisation Technical Report. Its heading is Diet
60 Nutrition and Prevention of Chronic Diseases and it is a
