New european report questioning 450,000 people concludes that drinking a pint of beer a day or a large glass of wine greatly increases the risk of bowel cancer.

So I can't drink wine
I cant have a beer
Meats bad for me
Cheese buggers up my arteries
Coffee bungs everything up
Gin & Tonic effects my memory
and .... oh I can't remember what else it was


What we gonna do? Suck Brussel sprouts and chew cabbage for pleasure

Eat and drink for tomorrow you may die.

I'll risk it, need a beer now and again! I do like brussel sprouts though, got a bag waiting for me in Spain

I think the main thing is to cut down on meat. I takes too long to get through the bowel - true carnivores such as cats have a short intestinal tract. Plenty of fibre, fruit and veggies and any harmful products in the drinks will go through OK

If you do everything they say, you would have to survive on water and fresh air alone, and lets face it, is the water safe ???? Is the fresh air fresh ???

I rest my case........................

Eat....Drink....Smoke....and be merry

rugbymatt

a healthy balance.

Water can also be bad for you if you can believe it - the man who died in the marathon this year was something to do with water - not sure what it was but there was something on TV not long after the event about it.

In excess I believe. That's why I try to avoid exercise.

Sam Greenfield

Thats as good an excuse as any - i like it

Pam Sarky

Life aint a rehearsal so enjoy it

jdr

Probably did`t have enough of it.

You can over hydrate, it is very common among people who work out a lot.

Fuzzlepop

And people on xtc.

rugbymatt

I wasn't going to say anything about that but yeah, its a real problem, but is also connected with the inability to temp regulate on it.

If you don't drink, smoke and have sex with dirty men/women (delete as applicable! You dont live longer it just seems that way!
