Booze Kills

[Shifty]

A recent study coming out of Europe has produced more definitive evidence related to the carcinogenic effects of alcohol. Drink up my friends!

----------
Drinking a “safe” amount of alcohol below the recommended daily limit increases the risk of developing cancer, with the danger remaining even if you become teetotal, experts say.

New research shows that one in ten cancers in men and one in 33 in women in Britain is caused by drinking - and the figures are on the rise.

Drinking causes cancer (even if you stop)

----------

The more alcohol that someone drinks, the more their cancer risk increases. But even very small amounts of alcohol, as little as one drink a day, can increase cancer risk. A team of Italian scientists analysed over 200 studies on alcohol and cancer. They were unable to find any lower daily limit of drinking alcohol where cancer risk was not increased.

Because of this many sources including the World Health Organisation and the European Code Against Cancer have suggested that women should drink less than two units a day, and men should drink less than three a day. While these levels may increase the risk of cancer, the actual effects are likely to be small.

Alcohol and cancer: the evidence

Why is everything fun bad for you? :1orglaugh

 

[tiger1977]

I took a vial of Chuck Norris' tears, so I'm gonna drink forever!!

 

[lurkingdirk]

There's a study to show that every fucking thing causes cancer. Fuck them all.

I'd bet, if I searched, there'd be a study that shows that rutabagas, placed in the rectum, cause cancer. And StanScratch is living proof that's bullshit.

 

[Will E Worm]

Alcohol does kill. So, stop drinking.

The fascist are coming for your alcohol when they are finished with cigarettes and Trans fats.

 

[BlueBalls]

Who wants to be 50 anyway?

Bottoms up! :beer:

True enough.

I'd rather die young and drunk than old and sober.

[Elwood70]

Bullshit

If that's true; how come there's more old drunks than there are old doctors?

Think I'll have another round.

 

[Tittyman5000]

I die a little more with every drink

 

[Mr_Balls]

I totally should start looking for the cancer cure myself.
All you gotta do is get a bunch of petri dishes with cancer cultures on them and add different substances one at a time.

It's that easy??

Is it really that surprising that alcohol might give people a slight increase of the chance for cancer? It's not like it's a natural occurring product that your body was designed to process well. It doesn't really have any great benefits. There is a reason it messes up one's cognitive functions when it's consumed and it taxes your liver to remove it from one's system.

 

[Red Spyder]

I guess it depends on what you drink

Research on the antioxidants found in red wine has shown that they may help
inhibit the development of certain cancers

So...what is it?

 

[LukeEl]

Thank god mouth wash, vanilla extract, rubbing alcohol, and paint thinner hasn't been listed yet.

 

[bustybbwlover]

gotta die of somethin' right?

 

[Ulysses31]

I heard a gunshot to the head can kill you?

 

[Kingfisher]

Because the church says so. (except for molestation) Or that's what I've heard.

They can. However, many don't. But oxygen kills all. The mixture of oxygen and nitrogen kills the average healthy human in 70 years. Less actually.
