Researchers from Cancer Council Victoria and University of Melbourne studied more than 35,000 Australians who developed 3,283 cases of obesity-related cancers.
The study found a positive association between soft drink consumption and cancer risk, independent of obesity, after statistically adjusting for waist circumference.

“These particular cancers are commonly associated with obesity, however, our research found this risk existed for all participants, no matter their size.”
