| Did you hear about the study by Dr. Arthur Klatsky of the Kaiser Permanente | |
| Research Group in California, the one that found that a single drink per | |
| day increased a woman's risk of breast cancer? | |
| At first blush, this fall study sounded as scary as last year's study from | |
| the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston, the one that reported | |
| that a glass or two of red wine daily helped lower the risk of heart | |
| attack-but only for men. | |
| What kind of sexist biology-is-destiny fates had determined that men could | |
| drink a glass or two of wine a day and see their health improve, yet women | |
| who do the same "were risking theirs? Is it time for women to give up the | |
| grape? | |
| I took a sober second look at the Klatsky study and found a few interesting | |
| things. First, the media focussed almost exclusively on the finding that | |
| women who drank one to two drinks per day had a 10 percent higher risk of | |
| breast cancer compared to those who drank less than one drink per day. And | |
| yet, any epidemiologist worth her salt will tell you that a 10 percent | |
| increase isn't exactly stop-the-presses news. The important news in | |
| Klatsky's study was actually underreported: namely, that heavy drinkers, | |
| those consuming three or more drinks per day, had a breast cancer rate 30 | |
| percent higher than those who drank less than a one drink per day. | |
| "A 30 percent increased risk is not trivial," Klatsky pointed out. "It | |
| provides more evidence for why heavy drinkers should quit or cut down." | |
| He is right. Among the 70,033 multi-ethnic women whose health records | |
| Klatsky examined between 1977 and 1985, four percent had been diagnosed | |
| with breast cancer by 2004. Heavy drinkers were twice as likely to have had | |
| the diagnosis. A woman's lifetime risk of having breast cancer is about one | |
| in nine; for heavy drinkers, the risk could be nearly one in six. Moreover, | |
| heavy drinkers are already at an elevated risk of diabetes, osteoporosis | |
| and many types of cancer. If you're drinking three or more drinks per day, | |
| breast cancer is one more reason to cut back. | |
| At the same time, we need to put a 10 percent increased risk of breast | |
| cancer in perspective. Coronary artery disease is the leading cause of | |
| death for Canadian women. In 1996, 39,924 Canadian women died of | |
| cardiovascular disease, while 5,300 women died from breast cancer. Women | |
| are eight times as likely to die from heart disease as from breast cancer. | |
