Here's to your health
Though I doubt Bill Nye the Science Guy will be talking about this any time soon, there is scientific evidence suggesting that drinking moderate amounts of beer and wine can reduce your risk of developing kidney cancer.
A British Journal of Cancer study revealed that people who drank more than two glasses of wine or two bottles of beer per week were 30 to 40 percent less likely to develop renal cell cancer than people who abstained from boozing entirely.
This could be for two reasons: 1) Past studies have shown that having one drink per day can improve insulin sensitivity. This, in turn, lowers the risk of diabetes and obesity, both of which have been linked to a higher risk of kidney cancer; and 2) Antioxidants found in grape skins and yeast may help stave off this form of cancer.
