"To the long list of the known deleterious effects of #alcohol, add lung #cancer, fractures, bowel/rectal cancers and #cataracts. The latest #WHO advisory is that the antioxidants polyphenols and resveratrols in red wine notwithstanding, there is no safe amount of alcohol imbibing that does not affect health. Earlier risks of alcohol are well documented"
