"According to the study, women who drank more than roughly 1.5 glasses of wine per day were twice as likely to get the disease compared to women with little or no alcohol intake. Moderate drinkers, meanwhile, were found to be at a 12 percent lower risk of breast cancer."

1.5 glasses is not moderate? What is moderate then I wonder. Is it .9 glasses per day, or 9 glasses every Saturday night?

You beat me to it! I was sitting here huffing and harrumphing at that. How much more moderate can you get without being teetotal?

Didn't they put out a study saying red wine lowered risk of heart attack?

So give up the wine, and you won't get breast cancer, but you might have a heart attack, LOL!

If a person tried to follow all the dietary recommendations that come and go, they'd probably have to be committed to the "looney bin" because they'd be sooo confused.
