Researchers at Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute found that drinking at least one sugar-sweetened beverage daily increases gastric cancer risk 2.45 times compared to drinking less than one monthly.

Analysing decades of data from 112,284 participants across two studies - where 278 developed gastric cancer - the link held true for both men and women after adjusting for other risk factors.
