Alcohol intake and colorectal cancer risk: a dose-response meta-analysis of published cohort studies.
Alcohol consumption may speed up the onset of colorectal cancer.
This study examined whether alcohol consumption contributes to the development of colorectal cancer. Researchers meticulously conducted a meta-analysis on data extracted from 16 studies.
Researchers found a positive association between high intake of alcohol and elevated colorectal cancer risk. The results from this study suggest that alcohol lovers may be much more vulnerable to colorectal cancer than non-consumers of these types of drinks.
