Men who drink plenty of low-sugar fluids may reduce their risk for bladder cancer, new research suggests.
Although the reason for the association between fluid intake and protection against cancer remains unknown, researchers theorize the fluids may flush out potential cancer-causing agents before they have a chance to cause any damage.
The investigators found that the men with a high daily fluid intake, or those who drank more than 10 cups (2,531 milliliters) per day, had a 24 percent reduced risk for bladder cancer. The study authors concluded that doctors should tell their patients to drink plenty of low-sugar fluids.
This research should be viewed as preliminary until published in a peer-reviewed journal.
