Fizzy drinks and ice cream increase the risk of lung cancer by 41 per cent.

\nA major new study has revealed that those who consume the most ultra-processed foods (UPFs) are a lot more likely to get the disease.

\nAn international team of experts have revealed that junk food is particularly bad for non-small cell lung cancer and the aggressive small cell type.

\nThe research tracked the diets and health of over 100,000 adults in the US over a period over 12 years and found that 1,706 people went on to develop lung cancer.

\nThose who gorged on UPFs were 41 per cent more likely to get lung cancer but the experts warned that the findings do not prove that UPFs cause the disease.

\nProfessor Sam Hare, a consultant chest radiologist at the Royal Free London NHS Trust, says that additional work is needed “to establish direct causation between UPFs and lung cancer”.

\nHe said: “Crucially, whilst this study does make some adjustments for smoking status, the amount of smoking is not factored in, which is known to be directly related to lung cancer development.

\n“Dietary habits also change considerably over the course of such long-term studies.

\n“It’s difficult to directly conclude that lung cancer is related to the level of UPF consumption alone given it was only declared at the start of the study.”
