letters@hindustantimes.com WASHINGTON:

US Surgeon General Vivek Murthy said alcohol consumption increases the risk of at least seven types of cancer, including breast, colon and liver cancer, but most US consumers remain unaware of this.

Murthy also called for the guidelines on alcohol consumption limits to be reassessed so that people can weigh the cancer risk when deciding whether or how much to drink. US dietary guidelines currently recommend two or fewer drinks per day for men and one drink or less per day for women.
