If even light drinking can cause cancer, why don’t doctors warn their patients about it?
DOCTOR’S NOTE
Cancer is only our second-highest killer. The top killer is heart disease, so what about the French paradox? Doesn’t moderate drinking protect against cardiovascular disease? In that case, isn’t some alcohol beneficial overall? These are exactly the kinds of questions I set out to address in this four-part series, which also includes:
- The Best Source of Resveratrol
- Is It Better to Drink a Little Alcohol Than None at All?
- Do Any Benefits of Alcohol Outweigh the Risks?
