Doctors issue urgent warning over ingredient found in popular drinks that turbocharges CANCER
Why Troubling News:
This title is misleading and alarmist, particularly the use of "turbocharges." The article discusses how the study being referenced "suggests" that the ingredient "may" contribute to cancer (not CANCER) like the headline emphasizes. The reason this is troubling is because the reality of the situation is that while their is research, it is still very early and contains nothing to warrant the use of "turbocharges"

Absolutely, this is very alarming; it seems to scaremonger the reader.
This is a really good example of clickbaiting people with a title, implying an effect that is far beyond what the research actually says. Good find.
