We stopped at a cafe while out for our walk this morning. I had a quick look at the newspapers.
Only yesterday we were discussing with Gail and John about what a dreadful illness pancreatic cancer is. I had previously read that eating fatty meat is one of the principal causes, but in today's paper I discovered another cause.
A study of 60,000 people over 14 years has revealed that those who regularly consume soft drinks have almost twice the incidence of pancreatic cancer as those people who do not use soft drinks.
There is lots on the Internet about this, but there is a report at this address:
