The Claim
The burden of gastric cancer attributable to high sodium intake is consistently higher in males than females across China, Japan, Republic of Korea, and Mongolia, with male-to-female death ratios ranging from 1.68 to 2.43 in 2021.
What the research says
Supports is higher
Support is ahead, but a single strong opposing study can change this.
These are independent scores, not a percentage. Higher-grade studies count more, so a single strong opposing study can outweigh several weaker ones.
This claim says that in several Asian countries, more men than women die from stomach cancer linked to eating too much salt, with men dying about 1.7 to 2.4 times more often than women.
