Soft drinks related to gout, Vancouver research shows
Men who drink sodas and other sugary soft drinks are more likely to develop a painful joint condition called gout, according to a new long-term study conducted by a Vancouver-based researcher.
The 12-year study of more than 46,000 dentists, pharmacists and veterinarians in the United States and Canada found that as men increased their pop intake, their odds of getting the painful swelling condition spiked.
Dr. Hyon Choi, a rheumatologist and gout expert at the University of British Columbia was the lead author of the study, published today in the British Medical Journal.
