Elizabeth Hurley Wants Her Organic Dinners to Reduce Breast Cancer Risk

You might already know that Elizabeth Hurley has become a farmer. The brunette beauty and her husband live on a biodynamic farm, and last year she said she intended to gain organic status and “farm properly and we’re going to have a herd of cows and proper sheep and proper chickens, and we’re going to have Gloucestershire Old Spot Pigs.”

Now that she has her organic status, she’s not only focused on that, but also on helping women reduce their risk of breast cancer. Liz has been a longtime supporter of breast cancer awareness and research, and now she’s speaking out.

“I think we know now that many issues with women’s health can be linked back to their diet. We’ve been saying for a long time that many breast cancer specialists recommend sticking to as low-fat a diet as possible, which all has to do with how estrogen is stored in the body,” Elizabeth told People magazine, adding, “Now we genuinely believe that if any of even the zero fat milk is crammed full of antibiotics and hormones it can be very detrimental to your health.”

As of right now, it’s not clear whether the actress’ line of organic frozen dinners will be available in the States, but I wouldn’t be surprise, seeing as how she admits she’s “obsessed that women find alternatives to eat which are low in fat.” I know I would give it a try — would you?
