The research conducted by The University of Tokyo revealed that people who drank two or fewer drinks a day still had an elevated cancer risk.


Excessive alcohol consumption is dangerous for health, we all know it. It casts a serious risk of liver damage, heart problem and many other health issues. That's why we are always advised to drink in moderation. Those who are everyday drinkers are specifically advised to limit the consumption to not more than two drinks.

We have often heard and read that having 1-2 drinks a day poses no threat to our health; but the results of a new study suggest otherwise.

Researchers in Japan have found that even light alcohol consumption might increase the risk of cancer. So, a couple of drinks every day (that we always thought to be harmless) may not be really a good idea. 

The research conducted by The University of Tokyo revealed that people who drank two or fewer drinks a day still had an elevated cancer risk regardless of how long they had consumed alcohol. The analyses were also classified by sex, drinking/smoking behaviours and occupational class, and displayed the same patterns. The results were published in the journal Cancer. 

Masayoshi Zaitsu, one of the researchers from The University of Tokyo, said, "In Japan, the primary cause of death is cancer. Given the current burden of overall cancer incidence, we should further encourage promoting public education about alcohol-related cancer risk.

The researchers analysed data of 63,232 people dealing with cancer, procured from 33 general hospitals in Japan. All the patients divulged their average daily amount of standardised alcohol units and the duration of alcohol consumption. The team discovered a linear association between cancer risk and alcohol consumption.

The study gives some noteworthy warning signals to us. It found that the overall cancer risk appeared to be the lowest at zero alcohol consumption. The elevated risk could be blamed at alcohol-related cancer risk across relatively common sites, including the colorectum, stomach, breast, prostate and esophagus.

Glad I gave this fifteen minutes rather than the usual three minute skim, and a look at <a href="http://copperwindessentials.shop" />copperwindessentials</a> earned the same investment, time spent on quality content is rarely wasted but the reverse is also true and learning which sites deserve which kind of attention is part of being a careful online reader.
A piece that brought a sense of order to a topic I had been finding chaotic, and a look at <a href="http://epiccartcenter.shop" />epiccartcenter</a> continued that organising effect, content that imposes useful structure on messy subjects is doing genuine intellectual work and this site is providing that organisational function across multiple posts I have read recently here.
Worth recognising that this site does not chase the daily news cycle, and a stop at <a href="http://dreamwovenbazaar.shop" />dreamwovenbazaar</a> confirmed the longer publication arc, sites that resist the pressure to comment on every passing event are sites with genuine editorial discipline and this one has clearly chosen depth over volume which I respect deeply.
A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at <a href="http://premiumpickzone.shop" />premiumpickzone</a> suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.
Quietly building a case in my head for why this site deserves more attention than it currently seems to receive, and a look at <a href="http://freshcartcorner.shop" />freshcartcorner</a> reinforced the case, the gap between quality and recognition is a recurring frustration in independent online content and this site is one of the cases that seems particularly egregious to me today.
This one is staying open in a tab for the rest of the day so I can come back and re read certain parts, and a look at <a href="http://silverhorizonstore.shop" />silverhorizonstore</a> suggests I will be doing the same with a few more pages here too, this is going to be a deep dive over the coming hours.
Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at <a href="http://trustedbuyerszone.shop" />trustedbuyerszone</a> extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.
Now appreciating the small but real way this post improved my afternoon, and a stop at <a href="http://swifttrendhub.shop" />swifttrendhub</a> extended that small improvement effect, content that produces measurable positive impact on the texture of a reading day is content with real value and this site is producing those small positive impacts at a sustainable rate apparently.
Adding this site to my regular reading list, the post earned that on its own, and a quick stop at <a href="http://velvetharborgoods.shop" />velvetharborgoods</a> sealed the decision, the kind of place worth checking back with from time to time because it consistently produces material that holds up against a critical reading too which I really value.
Will recommend this to a couple of friends who have been asking about this exact topic, and after <a href="http://buyloopshop.shop" />buyloopshop</a> I have even more reason to do so, the kind of site that earns word of mouth rather than chasing it through aggressive marketing or paid placements is always a treat to find online.
Liked that the post landed without needing to manufacture controversy or take a contrarian stance for attention, and a stop at <a href="http://glowforgeessentials.shop" />glowforgeessentials</a> continued that grounded approach, content that earns attention through quality rather than provocation is the kind that builds long term trust rather than burning it on quick wins.
Picked a single sentence from this post to remember, and a look at <a href="http://cloudlaneessentials.shop" />cloudlaneessentials</a> gave me another to keep, content that produces memorable lines is doing more than just transferring information and the small selection of sentences I keep from each reading session is one of the actual returns I get from reading carefully.
A memorable post for me on a topic I had thought I was tired of, and a look at <a href="http://stylishgoodsarena.shop" />stylishgoodsarena</a> suggested the same site can refresh other tired topics, sites that can revive my interest in subjects I had written off as exhausted are doing rare work and this one is clearly doing that for me today.
My friends would appreciate a few of these posts and I will be sending links accordingly, and a look at <a href="http://frostdunemarket.shop" />frostdunemarket</a> added more pages to my share queue, content that earns shares to specific people in specific contexts is content with social utility and this site is generating those targeted shares from me consistently lately.
Decided to read more before commenting and the more I read the more I wanted to say something, and a stop at <a href="http://freshdealstation.shop" />freshdealstation</a> pushed that impulse further, when content provokes the urge to participate rather than just consume it is doing something quite specific and worth recognising clearly when it happens during reading.
