@ JACQUIE – My pleasure Jacquie and thank you for your comment.

I agree – there are a lot of things we try to ignore, when it comes to good health and nutrition. Unfortunately sooner or later something catches up with us that is harder to ignore.

And again, you got it – the links between alcohol and cancer – but especially breast cancer are pretty big too.

Thanks for adding these great points in!

Thanks for the great article and also the useful links that follow. Most people try to ignore the health effects as they just don’t want to know. One that I find particularly scary is the link between alcohol abuse and breast cancer. Especially this month (October) – breast cancer awareness month.

You spoke of the additional “empty” calories. I’m sad to say that I actually know people who eat less healthy food in their day, just so that they can use those calories to consume alcohol. Very Sad!!!
