Sugary drinks have long been associated with very negative health outcomes. And now there is evidence that they affect cancer mortality rates.
All kinds of sodas and store-bought juices contain a huge amount of sugar, and it leads to kidney damage, high blood pressure, obesity and strokes. These drinks are especially dangerous for overweight children. Also, the list of negative consequences includes caries, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, gout and type 2 diabetes.
Unusual connection between work and death found
The American Cancer Society has published the results of a study of sugar-sweetened drinks. It focused on two important aspects of health – obesity and cancer. New correlations have been found that directly link high-sugar drinks with cancer, which is triggered by obesity. And this increases the risk of tumor-related deaths by 5%.
