Early Sugar Shapes Long-Term Health | Science News
New research reveals that early sugar exposure—especially in the first two years of life—can have lifelong health consequences, including lower cancer risk and slower biological aging. Using a natural experiment from post-WWII Britain’s sugar rationing, scientists tracked over 64,000 people born between 1951 and 1956. Those born before sugar rationing ended in 1953 had significantly less sugar exposure and showed up to 70% lower rates of liver cancer, plus reduced signs of cellular aging.
