New Delhi: A new study says drinking alcohol can increase the risk of breast cancer. That is a good enough reason why women should not knock back too many drinks, be it beer, wine or other alcoholic drinks.
While a glass of wine may help females unwind, it may also put them at a higher risk for breast cancer.
A new study in the Journal of the American Medical Association finds three to six alcoholic drinks a week showed an increased risk.
The study shows the alcohol added to whatever risk a woman already had for breast cancer.
Researchers say the trend is linked to a woman's alcohol consumption throughout her lifetime.
They said there was no difference if a woman was drinking a single serving of beer, wine or liquor.
