I’ve been drinking for 7 years. Typicall I’ve only drank 3-4 drinks a year. If I stop drinking now, would that help decrease chances of cancer? If it does will it take a long time?

      yeah okay. maybe people aren’t afraid of becoming an alcoholic. i mainly drink on weekends and maybe on a few weekdays for example when it’s summer and warm.

      Idk … I worry about cancer like when i eat beef or order a pizza with salami. Both things that also cause cancer.

      But okay, don’t drink too much alcohol.

      Edit: What i wanted to say is: Don’t live your life in constant fear. Plenty things around you cause cancer. And life always ends in death. But i think that shouldn’t stop you from enjoying life. You’re allowed to occasionally drink or eat beef if you want. The risk is very little. If you don’t do it excessively.
