Drinking 2 or more soft drinks per WEEK may tremendously increase risk of Pancreatic Cancer

Drinking two or more soft drinks per WEEK increased the risk of pancreatic cancer by nearly DOUBLE compared to individuals who did not consume soft drinks, according to a report in Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, a journal of the American Association for Cancer Research.

Although it is relatively rare, pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly, and only 5 percent of people who are diagnosed are alive five years later.

Researchers behind this study have offered that the high levels of sugar in soft drinks may be increasing the level of insulin in the body, which we think contributes to pancreatic cancer cell growth.

We know too much sugar (the traditional western diet) has multiple damaging side effects, but this is a powerful finding, with a tragic ending to drinking "soft drinks" - which also include the so called "power" or "energy" drinks, which are full of sugar
