Researchers classified the participants into four groups based on their frequency of ramen consumption: less than once a month, one to three times a month, once or twice a week, and those who ate the noodles three or more times a week.
Participants were also followed for about 4.5 years, and deaths that occurred during this period were also tracked through official records.
Most participants ate ramen at least once a month, with nearly 1 in 3 eating it weekly, the study noted.
During the follow-up, 145 people died – 100 from cancer, 29 from heart disease.
The findings suggest frequent intake of ramen noodles may be linked to a greater death risk in men aged under 70 years.
