In recognition of 'No Alcohol Day' on May 9th, the article discusses the health risks associated with alcohol consumption, citing alcohol as a Group 1 carcinogen. Long-term alcohol use increases the risk of various cancers including colorectal, stomach, esophageal, oral, and breast cancer. The lack of ALDH2 enzyme in almost half of the population further increases susceptibility to alcohol-related health risks, with alcoholism potentially leading to cardiovascular diseases and strokes. Treatment options for alcoholism, such as integrated therapy and medication, are highlighted to help individuals overcome alcohol addiction and regain a healthy lifestyle.
