One of the symptoms of pancreatic cancer is among other things, one independent risk factor without the presence of other risk factors, namely the consumption of soft drinks such as the recently published (Cancer Epidemiology biomarkers & Prevention, February 2010). Consumption of soft drinks more than two drinks a week for a long time bear the risk of pancreatic cancer. This research applies to the ethnic Chinese in Singapore, but it was unclear why.
Eating a regular soft drink continuously for a long time, the number of annual time, 87 percent increased risk of pancreatic cancer. So was the all sweet food consumption (high-glycemic index). Factor sugar (sugarcane), other than red meat, and smoking, are thinking in this pancreatic cancer incidence. Therefore, limiting the intake of these three types of risk factors, soft drinks as an independent factor, is estimated to reduce incidence of pancreatic cancer.
