@mellyb Sorry that your thread has diversified from what you were talking about initially, but that's what happens when we are all in the soup together. Well done for pulling the bandaid off a difficult topic. This is where our sponsors @bcna can step in and give some more specific advice that the rest of us who are just muddling through can offer.
@stork I'm not going to put up links for you, but it is important to understand what the term Class A carcinogen means. It means that there has been sufficient research done to establish a scientific connection. It in no way means that alcohol, a class A carcinogen, has the same effect as being irradiated in a nuclear attack. Which is also class A. It means that there is well researched evidence of a connection. That can get really confusing when all the well researched indicators get lumped together as being equivalent risks.
