Study: Drinking Alcohol Boosts Breast Cancer Risk...
Dear Reader,
Important news for women on alcohol intake. The latest recommendation on alcohol consumption for women - no more than one drink per day is safe. This comes from the findings of a new study from the National Cancer Institute.
The research included 1,900 post menopausal women and demonstrated that drinking 7 to 14 alcoholic drinks a week brought a 30% to 60% higher risk of breast cancer. The women who did develop cancer of the breast most often got the most common type, estrogen and progesterone hormone receptor positive, which thankfully is not the most lethal form of disease.
These cancers are less aggressive and better behaved reports study author Dr. Claudine Isaacs, a professor of oncology at the Georgetown University Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center. Her study looked beyond alcohol and breast cancer, to identify the type of breast cancer that might be impacted by alcohol consumption.
This most recent research supports a larger study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association back in November 2011. This work examined over 100,000 women from the Nurses' Health Study, a long running study on women's health, finding that having 3 to 6 alcoholic drinks a week brought a 15% higher risk of breast cancer. The risk goes up another 10% for each alcoholic drink a woman has per day.
When it comes to breast cancer recurrence, there's a 2009 study that found drinking even a few alcoholic beverages a week upped the risk of recurrence in women who'd been diagnosed with early stage disease.
The reason researchers are so excited? Drinking alcohol is one of the few risk factors that are under your control. How much trouble alcohol causes for you depends on how much you consume.
It's important to keep in mind that drinking too much is also known to raise the risks of being diagnosed with other forms of cancer. Further, no one can predict who will have a problem with alcohol addition - if you do not currently drink alcohol, no one will urge you to start simply for potential health benefits.
Beyond alcohol intake, another risk factor that impacts breast cancer risk and is within your control is your weight. Being overweight or obese, especially after menopause is a problem according to researchers. Once your ovaries aren't making estrogen, it comes from the fat cells of the body - too many fat cells, too much estrogen. If you're carrying too much weight you're also likely to have a higher blood insulin level and this has also been linked to some cancers, including cancer of the breast.

Study: Drinking Alcohol Boosts Breast Cancer Risk... Continued...
The link between weight and breast cancer risk is not well understood. There
has been work that shows the risk may be worse for women who've gained weight
as adults, rather then those who've been heavy all their lives. What's more,
where the fat is located on your body - in the middle or on the hips and thighs
- is likely to impact the risk of disease.
Also of note, evidence is mounting that being active brings down breast cancer
risk. Getting regular exercise is another action you can take that not only keeps
your body fit, but may also impact your risk of disease. One study from the Women's
Health Initiative saw that from 1.25 to 2.5 hours a week of brisk walking cut
risk of breast cancer by 18%.
The take home message? Limit your intake of beer, wine and hard liquor to one
drink per day to get whatever protective effect you can. Understand that one
drink is considered to be 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine or 1.5 ounces of
hard liquor. What's more, are also lots of delicious, readily available drink
choices that don't have a drop of alcohol, but do have the exact same taste you
love.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker
