[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, this does not make much sense. The read the book Emperor of All Maladies (highly recommend!), and cancer is relatively new and evolving. People drink far less now than in times when cancer rates were much lower. A lot of theory behind cancer being more prevalent is because people live longer and aging cells tend to become more prone to cancer. That is not to say alcohol is good, but maybe this is correlation and not causation. [/quote] Cancer is ancient - even dinosaurs had it. Study and treatment of cancer is what is relatively new. I agree if you died of TB at 24 or of childbirth at 21, you were probably never diagnosed with cancer. If you're not dying at that young age though, you might want to pay more attention on how to minimize cancer risks, including looking at the role of alcohol.[/quote]
