This associated with high fat intake, processed foods, and low intake of fiber. Some nutritional components, such as saturated fats and Refined carbohydrates may have pro-inflammatory properties. It is considered that diet is one of the most important exogenous factors in the etiology of CRC. In this scientific research, a narrative bibliographic review was carried out with the objective to examine the influence of a diet high in carbohydrates and fats on the CCR development. 32 scientific articles of the following types were reviewed: meta-analysis, systematic reviews, clinical trials and observational studies, published in PubMed and BVS in the last five years.
