Résumé : |
Key points:
• Guidelines for sensible drinking are based on the short-term effects of consuming alcohol, such as social and psychological problems or admissions to hospital, and disregard the dose-response relationship between alcohol consumption and cancer risk. • The current guidelines for sensible drinking for the general population are not adequate for the prevention of cancer. • Revised guidelines that are based on complete and up-to-date scientific evidence are needed. |
