Back in 2009 a study was released that showed even low levels of alcohol consumption for women carried increased risks for developing breast cancer. Despite the importance of the topic, It seemed to sink without so much as a murmur.In Australia, alcohol is a familiar part of almost every aspect of social life, and sadly, statistics reflect the increased use of alcohol, especially by young women.
Yesterday the Australian Cancer Council released a position statement on the use of alcohol and it's direct link to developing a range of cancers. It's a stark change of policy, and reflects a position that many in the natural health field have held for years.
The report debunks the theory that moderate drinking may also help to reduce heart disease, and errs on the side of abstinence as the best option. It will be interesting to see how the liquor industry responds to this report !
Younger women, blurring the lines between feminism and sheer stupidity, are increasingly drinking their male counterparts under the table, in the mistaken belief that it's almost a badge of honour. TV serials such as Sex in The City glamorise the consumption of alcohol, even further, and cocktails, shots, and schnapps and are now standard fare on an evening out for young groups of women.
What needs to be urgently highlighted is why alcohol affects women quite differently to men. It's obvious that women get drunk quicker, and it's not because they have less body mass. It's more to do with their higher ratio of fat to water, and how diluted alcohol is when it hits the bloodstream. They also have less of an enzyme that helps break down alcohol. New research would indicate that heavy liquor takes a far greater toll on women's bodies more quickly, and as adults, they can develop liver disease 10 to 15 years earlier than men, even though consuming only a fraction of what men do.
Society is paying a huge price for the surge in the binge drinking mentality that now permeates much of the youth of the developed world, and the insane concept that getting 'wasted' equates to a great night out !
Young women are playing a deadly game of Russian roulette with their health and vitality and especially their fertility, by embracing the culture of alcohol consumption, often starting in their early teens.
In my clinic I am increasingly seeing young women in their early to mid twenties, seeking help for a wide range of health issues, related to weight gain, hormonal irregularities, breast lumps, extreme period pain, skin problems, headaches, backaches, mood swings, depression, adrenal burnout and insulin resistance.
The common denominator is often regular alcohol consumption, with frequent episodes of binge drinking.
It should come as NO surprise that the incidence of breast cancer is increasing in younger women, and I believe we are as yet only seeing the tip of the iceberg, in terms of what is likely to come. Women cannot continue to abuse their bodies to such an extent, without paying the piper at some point down the track.
It's time to speak up and start teaching our younger generations, the whole story of what price must be paid by a society that accepts and embraces a culture of alcohol abuse, as being par for the course.
In Good Health
