Alcohol consumption may increase breast cancer recurrence risk

eurekalert.org

Moderate consumption of alcoholic beverages (3 to 4 drinks per week, no matter alcohol type) is associated with a 30 percent increased risk of breast cancer recurrence, a Kaiser Permanente study found. Post-menopausal or overweight women may be most susceptible to the effects of alcohol on recurrence. While previous research revealed a link between alcohol and increased breast cancer risk, there have been few studies about alcohol's role for breast cancer survivors.
