fresh air causes oxidisation ( rust ) . Scientists think human is not actually from this planet . I think there may be some truth and we are some messed up experiment gone wrong

I don't drink much anyway except the occasional big night out, so it doesn't really affect me. Not even sure what the latest recommendation has said.

It's very contentious, trying to factor out the culmination of what your doing while your drinking.

Was it the 4 pints or was it the sitting around for two hours doing it.

They tend to air on the side of caution as trying to figure out the rolled up effects of stuff is very tricky.

General slobbishness and a bad diet is probably worth staying away from, everything else is sort of what your gran told yer.

Everything in moderation

Looking at all the different reports on all the things that are going to give me Cancer, I think I'll just carry on the way i am because it seems inevitable that something is going to give me Cancer at some point and I'd rather enjoy my life and health while i have it rather than worrying too much about it. I think moderation is the key with most of these things. Anything to excess isn't good for you.

Too late for that one. Having sex can cause cervical cancer.

I wouldn't say so. Back in the 80's I was drinking 5-10 pints per night and about 20 at the weekend

Nowadays I generally have a few pints at the weekend and nothing during the week. Any damage may already have been done.

Smoking is the bain of my life which is not doing me any favours

"In Ireland there to introduce min price drinking who would be in favour of this ? "

Minimum pricing will never stop people drinking.

The On trade has been in decline for years, the off trade is increasing. People are always going to drink regardless...prohibition didn't exactly work.

And you can pick up home brew kits for £20 and make 25 litres...around 50p a pint.

Now if peopl chose to drink sensibly then that's a different matter

I thought the European court had found Scotland to be in breach of whatever law in trying to impose a minimum price..

It baffles me that there's like adverts and stuff saying you should avoid alcohol at least 2 days a week or whatever it is. So enough people drink every night of the week for it to be an issue that's advertised. I drink like 4 times a year... not 4 times a week

But, saying that - everyone is entitled to their own vices/enjoyment/whatever and if drinking is yours and it doesn't negatively impact your or anyone else's life then I don't have a bad word to say about it

I worked in a Labour club some 20 years back and there were the old guys late 70s and 80s same in the same chairs, sat at the same table for the six years I was there, drinking at least five pints a night, and they'd been doing that for the last 50 odd years I bet...

I'm not particularly fond of the C word and I've seen what it can do but where do we draw the line people? There is no line, everyone is different...

I'm a flexible very light drinker, so very open to follow research evidence to alter my behaviour related to health. I've lost too many friends and family to cancer and don't want others to experience more.

Although on the other hand last year was the first year in history where more than 50% of people survived cancer.

So as the risk of dying of cancer continues to steadily drop and treatment plans for specific cancers become ever more reliable surely the increased risk of getting cancer decreases in importance

I firmly believe that the biggest single contributor to cancer (and many other forms of bad shit) is stress. Its the biggest single silent killer of people this century, more than carbon monoxide or ninjas. People try and compensate for stress - they drink to relax, or eat junk food to feel better because bacon (in most cases) makes everything better.

But, there in the back of it all is the stress. Ultimately its stress that kills you - usually by some other cunning vector - - heart attack, stroke, cancer. But the root cause, stress. But when pathologists say 'He got a liver tumour because he drank a bottle of red wine a day and was turning his liver into foie-gra', no-one ever wonders if the reason he drank the bottle a day was to live with the stress of his life.

The irony is, many people will now be stressing out that the last half a bottle of vino collapso they had is the one that will finishing them off.

But I don't see the Government 'Advice Bureau' or the medial professions giving advice on how we can all just get off the 'stress train' and collectively chill out.

As the science gets better and better, and we gain more understanding of cancer and cancer causing agents, this helps to provide us with information.

Then how we choose to use that info is up to us.

I think it's all a balance.

Be happy, enjoy your life. Do the things that make you feel happy and well. And if that means you do things that increase your risk of cancer etc, well.... it's an informed choice. Which I think is better than.....'if only someone had warned me! I wouldn't have done it'

Surely being miserable and stressed and not enjoying your life has got to be ultimately worse for your health?

London and France

When I worked in a research organisation, we did an amusing study;

We gathered all the scientific reports from the previous 5 years that linked good, drink, etc to "causing" cancer, and all the reports that showed that various foods and drinks helped "prevent" cancer.

And made 2 lists; " cancer causing ", and " cancer preventing".

The lists were identical.
