Wearing a tight belt could give you throat cancer: Constricting waistbands cause acid reflux - increasing risk of the disease
People who are overweight are at most risk from wearing a tight belt
It can force stomach acid into the oesophagus where it damages cells
These damaged cells are more likely to become cancerous
People who wear a tight belt are at greater risk of developing throat cancer, new research suggests.
Scottish experts believe that a tight belt can force stomach acid into the oesophagus - in turn causing damage.
This increases the chance of oesophageal cancer
The researchers, from Glasgow and Strathclyde Universities and Southern General Hospital, believe the risk is greatest in people who are overweight.
The Daily Record reports that the researchers worked with 24 volunteers who had no history of acid reflux.
They were each asked to swallow a device which took a selection of readings before and after the volunteers had eaten.
Measurements were recorded both when the participants were wearing a belt and when they were not.
The researchers discovered that when the participants were wearing a tight belt they were more likely to suffer acid reflux.
This finding was particularly pronounced in overweight people.
