Soda Linked to Pancreatic Cancer




soda 300x198 Soda Linked to Pancreatic CancerA new study links sugary sodas to pancreatic cancer — a rare, deadly cancer that recently took the life of actor Patrick Swayze.

Researchers at the University of Minnesota found that people who drink only two or more sugar-sweetened, carbonated beverages per week have a much higher risk of pancreatic cancer. The study of more than 60,000 people found that those who drank mostly fruit juice instead of soda did not have the same risk.

“The high levels of sugar in soft drinks may be increasing the level of insulin in the body, which we think contributes to pancreatic cancer cell growth,” lead researcher Mark Pereira said.

    A CALL FOR ACTION,

    A new Retro virus X.M.R.V., has been found in the blood of over 90% of persons with Chronic Fatigue/Fibro.

    X.M.R.V. has been found to have an association to certain CANCER‘S.

    My sister was recently diagnosed with Pancreas Cancer after fighting Morgellons Disease. Infectious parasites accompany this disease that appears to be following the course of the retrovirus A.I.D.S. only in slow motion.

    She was a heavy cola drinker but developed Pancreas Cancer after she discontinued Cola use. We believe the parasites she witnessed, where robbing her pancreas of it’s natural production of bi-carbonate, Cola has the bi-carbonate needed to break down food.

    Schistosoma is a parasite that is reliant on it’s host for enzymes. A common belief is that you can’t get Schistosoma here in the United States . The fact is this deadly parasite is known to inhabit the Great Lakes Region.

    The C.D.C. has concluded the research into the causal agent of Morgellons. They are sharing the results with other’s in the Infectious Disease Community . They have been slow to release the results . Saying they must first identify the“Stakeholders”.

    MAY I ASSIST YOU C.D.C !!!!
    HERE ARE THE MAJOR STAKEHOLDERS,
    My sister has the highest price to pay , LET IT BE KNOWN,

    MY SISTER AND THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ARE THE
    MAJOR STAKEHOLDER’S
    IN THE EMERGENT DISEASE MORGELLONS.
    WITHOLDING RESULTS MAY BE A CRIMINAL ACT.

    IS THIS RETRO VIRUS EASILY TRANSMITTED?

    NOW IS THE TIME TO FOR ALL GOOD PERSONS TO STAND UP.

    re the soda and pancreatic cancer. It wouldn’t be surprising but only two beverages! (is that cans or bottles?)

    how the heck did they control for any othe dietary or other lifestyle factor?

    Maybe it wasn’t the soda but more that people who drink soda have a tendency to eat more sigar in general. If so, giving up the soda alone may not make much difference.
