New Scientist - One drink per day boosts breast cancer risk
by Dr. Nanochick at 11:13 pm EST, Nov 12, 2002

] "A woman's risk of breast cancer increases by seven per
] cent for each alcoholic drink consumed on a daily basis.
] But smoking does not increase the risk of developing the
] disease."

This is interesting....they say it is a "definitive" study.....but in my eyes, no study is "definitive"....but anyway, I do have to say that unlike alot of research out there, these researchers used *alot* of women in their study. But, alas, everything causes cancer. And once you have grown cancer in a tissue culture flask, you get a first hand look at how scary cancer really can be.
