Red and white wine both raise breast cancer risk

Still think they have any idea of what a "healthy" food is?

"It seems that both red and white wine are 'equal offenders' when it comes to increasing the risk of breast cancer, according to a study published today.

'We were interested in teasing out red wine's effects on breast cancer risk. There is reason to suspect that red wine might have beneficial effects based on previous studies of heart disease and prostate cancer,' Dr. Polly Newcomb, of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle, noted in a hospital statement.

'The general evidence is that alcohol consumption overall increases breast cancer risk, but the other studies made us wonder whether red wine might in fact have some positive value,' she explained.

However, in their analysis, Newcomb's team found no difference between red or white wine in relation to breast cancer risk. 'Neither appears to have any benefits,' she said."

Can you say, "Resveratrol ain't nothin' at all?"
