Department of Nutrition, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, Boston, MA, USA.
Aims/hypothesis: A positive association between sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) and diabetes risk has been shown, with inconsistent evidence between artificially sweetened beverages (ASBs) and diabetes. Moreover, it is uncertain if physical activity can mitigate the negative effects of these beverages on diabetes development. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the independent and joint associations between SSB or ASB consumption and physical activity on the risk of type 2 diabetes.

Breast cancer, as the most common cancer in the world, is related to multiple factors such as genetics and hormone levels.
