Shock study discovers popular drinks can cause deadly mouth cancer

Daily Mail  

Drinking just one can of sugar-laden soda pop per day could increase the risk of developing mouth cancer five-fold, a shocking study has found. Analysis revealed that women who reported consuming one or more sugary beverages per day were 4.87 times more likely to have developed mouth cancer, compared to those who drank less than one per month.

They estimated that the increased risk of mouth cancer from sugary drinks would lead to three more cases of the disease per 100,000 people.
