Another study to confuse alcohol drinkers
By Rob Stein, Washington Post
Here’s some news that might make a lot of women feel as if they need a drink: The compound in red wine suspected of having a host of health benefits has for the first time shown promising test results in people. But a new Harvard study indicates that indulging in as few as three drinks a week may boost a woman’s risk for breast cancer.
So, should that be a glass of Merlot? Or just plain water?
Scientists, of course, say: It depends.
“If you are someone with a family history of breast cancer but are healthy, at a good weight, exercise regularly, have a healthy diet and don’t have a risk for heart disease, then you may make one decision,” said Wendy Y. Chen of the Harvard Medical School. “Another woman who has some cardiovascular risk factors and no history of breast cancer may make a different decision.”
The findings, both released Tuesday, are the latest seemingly head-spinning medical advice about alcohol. For years, doctors advised that women could safely consume about a drink a day. Men could get away with two. More servings have long been known to have more risks than benefits, especially for breast cancer among women. Scientists think alcohol can cause breast cancer by raising estrogen levels.
Many experts urged caution about overreacting to the new findings. The slight increased risk for breast cancer from such low alcohol consumption was probably still outweighed for many women by a possible reduction in the risk of heart disease, which kills far more women than breast cancer.
Apparently sitting too many hours is also a cancer risk, even if you excericise regularly.
You might as well live in a dark room running on a treadmill, consuming nothing but lentils and purified water.
Life without sunshine, chocolate, and champagne would not be worth living, and none of us lives forever!
IT’S ALL IN YOUR FAMILY HISTORY OF DNA..
IF YOUR FAMILY HISTORY SHOWS CANCER, COLON PROBLEMS, DRINKING PROBLEMS,HEART PROBLEMS, MOST LIKLY YOUR % WILL TURN OUT THE SAME.EVEN THE SAME TEETH FALL OUT OR GO BAD PASSED ON.BOOZE IS A PASSED ON SICKNESS.
WHAT YOU EAT AND DRINK ARE WHAT YOUR ARE.
PEOPLE WHO EAT HOME COOKED DINNERS ARE MOST LIKLY TO LIVE LONGER THAN THE FAST FOOD LAZY PEOPLE, WHO CAN’T HANDLE CLEANING UP AFTER DINNER , WALKING,OR GOOD SEX.
SEX IS THE BEST FOR NOT HAVING LOWER BACK PROBLEMS.
NOT PROVEN BUT THE DEBATE GOES ON, ABOUT ALL THESE PILLS DOCTORS HAND OUT.
IF YOU ARE TRYING TO CURE SOMETHING IN ONE AREA THE BODY AND THE NOSE BLEEDS OR YOUR BOWELS HAVE PROBLEMS IN ANOTHER, YOU ARE TRADING ONE OR ANOTHER FOR SOMETHING WRITTEN ON THE SIDE EFFECTS LABELED BOTTLE.
THROW THAT TRASH AWAY GET BACK TO NORMAL HEALTHY LIVING.
