  Although alcohol has been one of the most studied and researched substances consumed by man, there are few sources one can consult for an objective review of the current state of scientific knowledge in this broad area. In this book, ILSI Europe has gathered together leading sceintists (including epidemiologists, clinicians, toxicologists and other biomedical researchers) to address the relationship between alcohol consumption and hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease, digestive tract cancers, liver diseases, breast cancer, pregnancy, weight gain and genetics. This book will be a valuable reference for all those involved in addressing the health effects of excessive, moderate and light consumption of alcohol.
