Alcohol's Impact: Health Benefits and Cancer Risks

A recent federal report reveals that even moderate alcohol consumption increases cancer risks, specifically liver, esophageal, and oral cancers.

While a daily drink might slightly lower stroke risk for some, the increased cancer risk outweighs these potential benefits.

Therefore, individuals should carefully consider the balance of potential benefits against serious health risks associated with alcohol intake.
