Now fruit juice is linked to a higher cancer risk

Live Mint  

Paris: Drinking soda doesn’t just threaten to make us fat, it could be linked to a higher risk of cancer, judging from a new study. When people drank the same amount of unsweetened fruit juice, they were also more likely to develop cancer, the researchers found. The researchers tracked 97 beverages and 12 artificially sweetened ones, including carbonated ones, sports drinks, syrups and pure fruit juices. The study found no increased cancer risk from sugar-free drinks, although so few of the people studied consumed them that the results may not be significant, the researchers said.
