Experts have established a direct link between alcohol consumption and cancer risk. Globally, alcohol intake accounted for 4% of all cancers diagnosed in 2020, according to a 2021 analysis by cancer experts.
In the UK alone, it was discovered that alcohol drinking caused nearly 17,000 cases of cancer in 2020 with breast cancer making up almost one in four of those new cases.In addition to breast cancer, six other cancer types — oral cavity, pharyngeal, laryngeal, esophageal, colorectal, and liver cancer — can be attributed to alcohol consumption, and emerging evidence suggests stomach and pancreatic cancer may be as well.
The good news, according to the experts is that long-term trends show declines in alcohol drinking in many countries.
