Wine lovers, beer enthusiasts and spirit drinkers all enjoy a relaxing drink. But is one better for you than the other? In this blog, we will investigate the health benefits that different types of alcohol have.
For many of us, just a sip of wine is thought to not cause health issues. However, drinking alcohol in any capacity increases your risk of cancers and we explore exactly how.
Instead of drastically changing your lifestyle in the hope of reaching the chosen goal – with the consequence of feeling too overwhelmed and losing interest – there are small lifestyle choices that can be made on a daily basis that won’t leave you feeling deprived. Denying yourself foods you love will only cause you to dislike healthy nutritious food. Instead, give yourself the freedom to enjoy any and all foods in moderation.
Post-cancer life should certainly be full of celebration, and for some, this might include enjoying the occasional drink. But before rushing into previous habits, survivors should reconsider the way that they consume alcohol.
