Professor Juergen Rehm

This cancer develops over quite a long time, 10 years and more.

So if you stop drinking, you may not reverse the cancer in your body.

However, you reverse any chance of new cancer if you have no cancer in your body.

Most people don't know if they have cancer in their body.

Let's say they're in year five.

Cancer is usually detected after seven, eight years.

So basically, yes, you reduce your risk of cancer if you reduce your drinking, and that every drink helps.

Every drink less reduces your risk of cancer.

I'm not a complete abstainer.

I think with all my knowledge now, I have reduced my drinking to around three drinks, three standard drinks per week.

No problem.

I'm happy to answer.

And I think it's a fair question.
