Beer Fights Cancer?

[damonc]

Could it be true? I'll drink to it anyway.

13. Have a beer tonight. Beer protects against the bacterium Helicobacter pylori, known to cause ulcers and possibly linked to stomach cancer. But don't overdo it. Drinking more than one or two alcoholic drinks a day may increase your risk of mouth, throat, esophageal, liver, and breast cancer.

Slap down of yet another #$$#@%$@ STUPID sensationalist article, quoting inconclusive research probably well out of context, with the majority of the real information missing............. <_< Take all the "may be's, possibly's, might's , suggestions and could's" out of articles like this and what do you have? NOTHING. Media spin and bullshit. Spare us. Please.

ie: "antioxidant that may help prevent skin cancer"

"unstable compounds that can damage cells and lead to diseases including cancer."

"Studies suggest that garlic can reduce the incidence of stomach cancer"

"Many studies suggest getting the ideal levels of vitamins"

hmmmmmm...lots of definite's in there.........
