6. Alcohol
We all know that alcohol is not good for our health. Alcohol consumption is the second leading cause of cancer right after tobacco. Although moderate or low alcohol consumption can be healthy and lead to a reduced risk of heart disease, excessive drinking has been known to cause heart failure, strokes, and sudden death. Excessive alcohol consumption is the leading cause of cancer in the esophagus, liver, mouth, intestines and breast. There is a lot of evidence to suggest that alcohol consumption is associated with an increased risk of certain types of cancer. The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified alcohol as a Group 1 carcinogen, which means that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that alcohol consumption causes cancer. Of course, you can still enjoy a glass of wine at dinner or have a drink from time to time. Think strongly about your health and stick to just one glass.
