Women That Sip smart Will Lower Their Risk of Breast Cancer.....

Limiting your intake of alcohol to five or fewer drinks per week will lower your risk of breast cancer says, Marisa Weiss., MD, oncologist and president of the nonprofit Breastcancer.org.

Furthermore, study shows that women that drank more than 14 alcoholic drinks per week faced a 24% increase in their breast cancer risk including drinking wine and beer.

According to breastcancer.org, "Significant alcohol use is unhealthy for your liver, which helps regulate estrogen levels in your system. So limiting your alcohol use helps your liver keep blood estrogen levels low."
