Experts have found links to cancer of the mouth and throat, larynx, oesophagus, liver, colon, bowel and breast

Scientists have discovered drinking can cause seven types of cancer

Alcohol directly causes a series of cancers, a major review has claimed.

Scientists have known for decades of a link – but experts now insist they have found “strong evidence” that seven types of cancer can result from boozing.

The greatest problems are in heavy drinking, but the University of Otago in New Zealand’s analysis of existing studies discovered even low amounts of alcohol are a risk.

They found links to cancer of the mouth and throat, larynx, oesophagus, liver, colon, bowel and breast.

Jennie Connor, from the University of Otago, said that based on the evidence, there is no safe level of boozing with respect to cancer.

She added that supposed health benefits of drinking – such as red wine being good for the heart – were “seen increasingly as irrelevant in comparison to the increase in risk of a range of cancers”.

The Otago findings concluded that for every 1,000 women who do not drink, 109 will develop breast cancer.

This rises to 126 women for those who consume up to 14 units a week, and 153 women for those who down 14 to 35 units.

Cancer cells could be formed because alcohol damages your DNA

One theory is that that alcohol can damage your DNA.

Susannah Brown, from the World Cancer Research Fund, said: “This review is solid evidence to conclude that alcohol consumption directly causes cancer.”

The study, published in the journal Addiction, said alcohol is estimated to be responsible for half a million deaths worldwide in 2012 – 5.8% of all cancer deaths.

Researchers said a person's weight could affect their brain function to make poor lifestyle choices 

Fat people are less intelligent than those with a healthier weight, according to a controversial study by US scientists.

Their research suggests overweight people have less grey and white matter in key areas of the brain, causing altered reward processing, which apparently makes them less able to control their diet choices.

Conclusions were drawn after researchers measured body mass index and body fat percentages and compared with differences in brain structure and function.

Brain scans from 32 adults, 16 men and 16 women, from Baltimore in Maryland were analysed as part of the study.

Anyone with a history of brain damage, substance abuse and mental illness was excluded.

The theory is likely to be fiercely contested by weight loss campaigners who say weight struggles are dependent on each individual.

The study was published in the science journal Frontiers in Neuroscience.

20 Wonder-Working Kitchen Tricks You Must Know

20 Wonder-Working Kitchen Tricks You Must Know

There are so many kitchen tricks that many of us don’t know about and this list is an eye opener. You’re welcome!!

 
(1). Mistakenly added too much salt to your food? Just drop in one peeled potato or yam. The potato helps absorb the excess salt.
 (2). Angry over cracked boiling eggs? Add a pinch of salt to keep the shells from cracking.
 (3). Burned a pot of rice? Place a slice of piece of white bread on top of the rice for 5-10 minutes to draw out the burned flavour. Be careful not to scrape the burned pieces off of the bottom of the pan when serving the rice. 
(4). To clean iron cook-ware, avoid using detergents. Alternatively, scrub them with salt and a clean dry paper towel.
 (5). When storing empty airtight containers, throw in a pinch of salt to avoid having that damp smell. (6). When making gravy (stews) and accidentally burn it, turn your mixture it into a fresh pan and continue. Add a pinch of sugar, doing that takes out the burnt taste. P.S watch the quantity of sugar though.
 (7). Never put citrus fruits (Oranges, Lemons, limes,etc) or tomatoes in the fridge. The low temperatures degrades the aroma and flavor of these fruits.
 (8) . Before you chop fresh red peppers, rub a little bit of vegetable oil into your hands and your skin won’t absorb the spiciness.
 (9). If you aren’t sure how fresh your eggs are, place them in about four inches of water. Eggs that stay on the bottom are fresh. If only one end tips up, the egg is less fresh and should be used soon. If it floats, it’s past the fresh stage.
 (10). To banish ants from the kitchen, find out where they are coming in and cover the hole with petroleum jelly(Vaseline). Ants won’t trek through the jelly. If they are coming under a door, draw a line on the floor with chalk. The little bugs also won’t cross a line of chalk.
 (11). Don’t store your bananas in a bunch or in a fruit bowl with other fruits. Separate your bananas and place each in a different location. Bananas release gases which causes other fruits (including other bananas) to ripen quickly. Separating them will keep them fresh longer.
 (12). To keep potatoes from budding in the bag, put an apple in with them.
 (13). If you manage to have some leftover wine, cocktail drinks at the end of the evening, freeze it in ice cube trays for easy addition to sauces (white wine works wonders in sauces.)
 (14). After boiling pasta or potatoes, cool the water and use it to water your house plants. The water contains nutrients that your plants will love.
 (15). When defrosting meat from the freezer, pour some vinegar over it. Not only does it tenderize the meat; it will also bring down the freezing temperature of the meat and cause it to thaw quicker. (16). Always keep an aloe vera plant in your kitchen. It’s invaluable when you scrape your arm or burn your finger. Just break off a leaf and rub the gel on the injury.
 (17). Too much fat or greese in your stew? Drop in an ice cube. The ice attracts the fat, which you can then scoop out. This works wonders.
 (18). To reuse cooking oil without tasting whatever was cooked in the oil previously, while heating the oil, drop a small piece of fresh ginger. It absorbs any flavors and odors.
 (19). If your milk always goes bad before you can finish it, try adding a pinch of salt to the carton when you first open it. It stays fresh for a few more days.
 (20). If two drinking glasses become stuck together after stacking, it’s not impossible to separate them. Just put ice in the inner glass and dunk the outer glass in warm water. The warm glass will expand and the cold glass will contract! Happy Reading I hope you enjoy it! Just try one trick for you to see how it work!!
