A study has found there is a type of drink, popular among the Irish, that ‘doubles’ the risk of bowel cancer - depending on the amount you ingest per day.
According to cancer.ie, bowel cancer is the fourth most common form of the disease found in Ireland, with over 2,562 cases reported each year.The devastating disease starts in the large intestines and mainly develops from pre-cancerous growths, which are called polyps. The latest research, published in the journal Gut, revealed there that is a definite link between sugar-sweetened drinks and bowel cancer.
Don't give them the traffic - It found adults - particularly women - who opt for two or more sugar sweetened drinks a day are doubling the ririsk of the deadly disease before they hit 50. fizzy drinks, fruit flavoured drinks, and sports and energy drinks all pose a threat.
