Impact of Sugar Consumption on Colon Cancer: Insights from a Harvard Study
A study conducted by Ming-Yang Song, an associate professor of clinical epidemiology and nutrition at Harvard, examined 1011 colon cancer patients over a follow-up period of more than seven years.
The study revealed a significant correlation between sugar-sweetened beverage consumption and colon cancer recurrence or mortality.
Individuals consuming less than two servings of sugar-sweetened beverages per month had a 67% reduced risk compared to those consuming two or more servings per day.
This underscores the importance of minimizing sugar intake to reduce the risk of cancer recurrence and mortality.
