Abstract

INTRODUÇÃO: As bebidas açucaradas são consideradas alimentos ultraprocessados e trazem maior contribuição energética na alimentação tanto dos brasileiros, quanto de outras populações. Estudos têm apresentado uma relação positiva entre o elevado consumo dessas bebidas e a incidência ou risco aumentado de desenvolver doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT). É importante ressaltar que as bebidas açucaradas são claramente associadas à obesidade, condição que se caracteriza como um fator de risco para a ocorrência de vários tipos de câncer. OBJETIVO: Avaliar o consumo de bebidas açucaradas associado ao risco de câncer, assim como com a ocorrência de obesidade. METODOLOGIA: Realizou-se uma pesquisa eletrônica na base de dados Pubmed e os estudos relevantes foram incluídos nesta revisão, considerando o tempo de publicação entre os anos 2016 a 2020. RESULTADOS: A partir da leitura dos treze artigos selecionados incluindo participantes consumidores de bebidas açucaradas, de ambos os sexos, foi possível constatar que o consumo excessivo dessas bebidas apresenta associação significativa positiva com o risco aumentado de câncer e com a ocorrência de obesidade nos indivíduos. CONCLUSÃO: Tendo em vista os conhecimentos atualizados sobre os malefícios das bebidas açucaradas no contexto de hábitos alimentares e doenças crônicas, descritos nesse trabalho, sugere-se que o consumo dessas bebidas está associado ao risco de câncer, assim como à ocorrência de obesidade.
