I asked the onc about alcohol earlier this month. He replied that he reads every study in the vain hope that something will show that alcohol is good for you. However, he did say that as far as he can tell from the research, drinking in moderation is fine - the problem comes with a drink every day that becomes two drinks every day, etc. How to define the thin line is what is difficult. My husband is convinced that alcohol is the cause of cancer even if he doesn't necessarily say so.
Did anyone watch the 60 minutes segment last night? I didn't but wondered what their spiel was.
@kmakm That report would be interesting to read. It appears that it is based on the heaviest drinking day rather than regular drinking - I wonder if that's factored in?
