Drinking & You

Hi, and welcome to the 'dear doctor' section of the Drinking and You site.

We answer all emails personally, or where relevant will pass you onto other sources of information. Each month we post a selection of questions received below as the answers could be of interest to other browsers.

This quarters features include news in how white wine may benefit your lungs, how alcohol may protect women from type 2 diabetes and information about drinking and colorectal cancer.

Two specialist reviews by Dr Harvey Finkel and Creina Stockley discuss the potential cardiovascular benefits of moderate alcohol consumption. For these stories and more, click here. Please send your comments and queries to us at info@aim-digest.com

We look forward to hearing from you.
