Fresh drink drinks are prone to cancer?

A study conducted with more than 35,000 people showed that people who drank soft drinks were taller, even if they were not overweight.

According to the New Atlas website, the results of this study "reign" back to a contention that had previously surfaced about the problem of excessive sugar absorption is the direct cause of cancer.

The new study is published in Public Health Nutrition by the University of Melbourne in collaboration with the Victoria Cancer Council.

The data collected from 35,593 participants showed that there were 3,283 cases of obesity-related cancer, including kidneys, rectum, esophagus, pancreas, liver and gallbladder.

The study concluded that there was a strong association between consumption of sugary drinks and the progression of 11 types of cancer.

More notably, the association between cancer risk and survival persists regardless of the size and weight of the study participants.

Alison Hodge, one of the researchers who participated in the research project, said: "We were surprised to find that the increased risk of cancer is not entirely affected by obesity. Even People who are not overweight still have a higher risk of cancer if they regularly drink soft drinks. "

However, according to the study, the risk of cancer increased only in those who regularly drink sweetened sweet drinks, but not those who drink soft drinks using artificial sweeteners for dieters. Since then, we can see that sugar is the main "crime" that increases the risk of cancer.

Although the definitive route is closely related to both obesity and diabetes, the direct role of sugar with cancer remains a highly debated and controversial topic.

Last year, a study by VIB Institute (Belgium) also showed a mechanism to prove sugars that could increase the growth rate of cancer cells and most likely the factor that makes tumors grow faster. than.
