The observational study followed 927 women aged 35 to 79 having been diagnosed with breast cancer for almost 19 years. By completing a food frequency questionnaire, participants gave researchers a look at what their consumption of food and beverages looked at 12 to 24 months before their diagnosis.
The biggest take away from the study? Compared to their peers who rarely reported or never drink sweet soda, women who drank non-food soda five times or more per weekhad a probability of 82% of people to die any cause. They were also85% more likely to die of breast cancer, in particular.
It is important to note that the diet has not given the same effects. In fact, associations have not changed when researchers took into account the consumption ofsoda without sugars as a variable.
"Non-food sodas are the highest sugar contributors and additional calories for food, but do not bring anything else that is beneficial nutritionally, "First author Nadia Koyratty, PhD candidate in the Department of Epidemiology and Environmental Health at the University of Buffalo stated in a statement.
"On the other hand, 100% cafes and fruit juices, unless sugars are added, healthier beverage options because they add to the nutritional value by antioxidants and vitamins."
That's why sodas, with othersSugary drinks And foods are often called "empty calories". Although they have a lot of calories, none of them (or very little) offers a nutritional value. Since the solda is so high in sugar and fructose sugars, the frequent consumption of these very concentrated drinks can potentially lead to other health conditions associated with an increased risk of breast cancer, includingType 2 diabetes.
Of course, additional studies are needed to confirm the conclusions of this study, which is allegedly one of the few gender that explored the relationship between sweet soda consumption and the risk of breast cancer.
