You might have heard that alcohol can cause cancer, but how does this actually happen? Drinking alcohol increases the risk of cancer as it causes damage to your body, even in small amounts. This doesn’t mean that you’ll definitely get cancer, but the risk is higher the more alcohol you drink. The more you can cut down on alcohol, or the longer you are teetotal, the more you can reduce your risk.
