Alcohol is a Group 1 carcinogen
For roughly two decades, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) of the World Health Organization has classified alcohol as a Group 1 Carcinogen.[1] The WHO emphasizes, "there is no safe amount that does not affect health.". Alarmingly, the WHO also highlighted that nearly half of all alcohol-attributable cancers in the European Region are linked to consumption, even from "light" or "moderate" drinking.[2] |
