Alcohol and Health close

Drinking alcohol may cause health problems. It is common knowledge that regular heavy drinking is associated with several illnesses, including liver disease, high blood pressure and certain types of cancer. Scientific studies have also found an association between light to moderate alcohol consumption and an increased risk in breast cancer.

For some people the better choice may be to not drink at all so consult your healthcare professional for individual advice. Certain groups should not consume any alcohol including those who are underage, pregnant or otherwise advised not to drink.
